Vancouver Umbrella manufactures and distributes rain, patio and market umbrellas to retailers all over North America. We distribute to over 700 retailers in Canada, and over 400 retailers in British Columbia. Also we are the largest corporate umbrella supplier in Canada both in rain and outdoor umbrellas. We can arrange custom fabrics, custom printing and custom frames. Vancouver Umbrella has been a part of the business community in BC for many years, and our commitment to ethical business practices applies to our partners both domestically and internationally. Vancouver Umbrella ensures that all of our suppliers act as environmentally and socially sustainable operations as well. Our wood market umbrella supplier, re-forests all the lumber used in the manufacturing of our products, and also works with The Forest Stewardship Council (FSC), an international non-profit organization that supports environmentally appropriate, socially beneficial, and economically viable management of the world's forests. Vancouver Umbrella uses as much recycled content in our products as possible. All of our packaging is made from 100% recycled cardboard and plastic. Further, our offshore manufacturing plant strictly abides by the standards set out in the U.S. Labour Code. To ensure that the highest standards of social conduct are met and quality workmanship is being adhered to, Vancouver Umbrella employs a quality control agent in Hong Kong to oversee production at both facilities. Our core management team also has regular on-site involvement in the production process, ensuring that the facility operates according to the appropriate codes of conduct. Vancouver Umbrella continually passes sustainability audits both locally and on our offshore premise. Locally, Vancouver Umbrella has been a supporter of many non-profit and community organizations, including Mothers Against Drunk Driving, the JCC Maccabi Games, local schools and community sports teams. Vancouver Umbrella is also a proud sponsor of the local children’s visual and performing arts institute Arts Umbrella. Arts Umbrella strives to remove barriers to participation in the arts faced by children with lower socio-economic status; therefore 85% of their students participate through free outreach programs. Vancouver Umbrella supplies Arts Umbrella with their corporate umbrellas for donor gifts, and also supplies umbrellas to the art classes for the children to decorate or paint for art projects.
