Montr\u00e9al Duty Free has proudly unveiled the new Atikuss Canada range in-store, marking a first foray into travel retail by the Indigenous-owned company. The latest addition to Montr\u00e9al Duty Free is part of an on-going commitment to supporting indigenous communities, both by ARI and YUL Montr\u00e9al-Trudeau International Airport.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Atikuss offers a range of premium traditional and contemporary accessories handmade by First Nations craftswomen. The brand\u2019s mission is to support Indigenous artisanship, honouring tradition while also promoting the social economy and helping to advance cultural reconciliation through fair and responsible trade.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The collection at Montr\u00e9al Duty Free showcases the best of traditional craftsmanship and reflects the rich Indigenous Canadian culture, from handcrafted leather bags to dreamcatchers, luxury handmade teddy bears to mittens and more.<\/p>\n

This new partnership by Montr\u00e9al Duty Free marks a step beyond supporting local producers, instead carrying huge cultural significance by supporting Canada\u2019s indigenous First Nations communities and offering passengers a chance to experience unique Canadian heritage.<\/p>\n

Katherine Sullivan, ARI North America\u2019s Head of Marketing said, \u201cWe are proud to welcome Atikuss Canada to Montr\u00e9al Duty Free, with a range of premium gifts and accessories that we know our passengers will love. It\u2019s a signal of our commitment to promoting local business, supporting Indigenous heritage, and to offering passengers a truly unique experience when they shop in our stores. Sense of place doesn\u2019t come much more authentic than this!\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cThis is truly a dream come true for our team. Being present in such an iconic location allows us to share our story, our values, and our identity with travellers from all over the world\u201d<\/em>, said Jos\u00e9e Shushei Leblanc, Founder of Atikuss Canada.<\/p>\n
