About Reitmans
Reitmans is a women's clothing chain that began as a small shop on boulevard Saint-Laurent in 1926. Nearly a century later, it is still based in Montréal and sells everyday fashion such as work pants, dresses, tops and basics.
It suits women looking for practical pieces for the office, weekends or a family event, in a range of sizes. Its stores are easy to find in malls across the province, which makes it handy for a last-minute outfit. Its story, from one boutique on the Main to a national chain, is a classic piece of Montréal retail history.
