RICHMOND HILL, ON, July 21, 2021 /CNW/ - What will this new school year look like? Let's Find Out! As the New School HQ and Canada's back to school destination, Staples Canada is ready to usher in a new school season, helping students, teachers and families across Canada embrace the year ahead with confidence.
In addition to offering exclusive brands, the latest tech to learn from anywhere, and new low prices on hundreds of school essentials, Staples Canada has launched its New School HQ portal – an online source for all things back to school – and continues to offer a convenient and safe shopping environment with in-store, curbside pickup and fast, free home delivery options.
"Like many Canadians, we're encouraged by the change that we're seeing across the country, and are hopeful that back to school will look a little more normal this year," said David Boone, CEO, Staples Canada. "We recognize that there are still many unknowns and, no matter what our return to class looks like, we're focused on supporting Canadian students, parents and teachers on their unique educational journeys this fall to make the continued transition to the New School as seamless as possible."
In advance of this important time of year, Staples Canada stores from coast-to-coast have been transformed to welcome customers and meet their changing needs. This includes a bigger technology assortment to support in-person and remote learning; an expanded assortment of learning and creativity products for all ages; a new Clean, Safe and Well aisle dedicated to cleaning and sanitizing solutions, and all-new workspace selections of all sizes and styles.
The latest tools from the best brands
As the New School HQ, Staples Canada has the knowledge, expertise and essentials to help Canadians prepare for a return to school during this critical time of the year. This includes offering new and exclusive products from the best brands like Pep Rally, Gry Mattr, General Supply Goods & Co., and more, while providing great value for customers.
- Value: The last thing parents need as we enter this new school year is additional financial burden – that's why Staples Canada has expanded New Lower Prices on hundreds of back to school essentials.
- New School Technology: Staples Canada will continue to focus on being Canada's destination for laptops, Chromebooks and virtual conferencing technology, enabling students at all levels to bring their best to any classroom. This year, an expanded assortment of audio solutions will be available for children.
- Back toSchool Must-Haves: Must-have supplies from known and trusted brands like Pep Rally, Poppin, Five Star, General Supply Goods + Co, Crayola, Louis Garneau, Emma Verde, Adidas, Champion and more have been re-imagined for 2021 and the New School.
- Hybrid Classroom: Workspace essentials became key for learners of all ages over the last two school years – hundreds of new products help them stay productive, no matter what the future has in store.
- Clean, Safe and Well-Prepared: Sometimes, sharing isn't caring. Personal protective equipment (PPE), sanitary travel kits, and personalized labels help keep things neat and sanitized – whether you're on the journey, or have reached your destination.
