"I’m pleased to report that in 2013, we were one of the better performers in our sector, with 6.2% growth, primarily driven by online sales. This was no easy accomplishment in our changing, increasingly competitive market.

MEC continues to be a very good retailer and a great brand. I’m very pleased
at how we have moved forward to be more relevant to our members across regions and demographics. I am proud of our culture of service and our passion for active outdoor lifestyles. Our people must embody our brand: authentic, enthusiastic people who love outdoor lifestyles, and aspire to do more. There’s
a vibrancy that comes from having a group of people who are all here to support each other and do their best work. We want members to continue to feel that sense of excitement and authenticity, to inspire them to get outside.

Thank you for supporting us in our journey." - David Labistour - CEO
