Our primary retail business categories - Automotive, Living, Fixing, Sports, Playing and Apparel - are supported and strengthened by our Financial Services division. For 90 years we have been preparing Canadians for everyday life in Canada. Today, Canadian Tire employs nearly 85,000 people across the country. Through the strength of our family of businesses, which include Canadian Tire Retail, Canadian Tire Gas+, PartSource, Canadian Tire Financial Services, Mark’s and FGL Sports, the Canadian Tire brand stands apart in its commitment to innovation, breadth of product offerings and overall value for consumers. Only an experienced retailer like Canadian Tire can understand the things Canadians hold dear because they are dear to us as well. We celebrate the changing of the seasons along with Canadians. We obsess about hockey and make fixing fun.
