Company - Profile

Gimpex Limited brings a long standing tradition of excellence to the design and manufacturing of quality shearling garments. Every step of the production ladder is handled in-house; from sketch and pattern design, sourcing skins, production, and quality control of the finished product.

Established in 1975, Gimpex has flourished from a boutique producer, to an international design house, manufacturer and wholesaler of shearling garments. As one of the founding producers on the historic Spadina Avenue in downtown Toronto, today our shearlings can be found throughout North America and Europe. Our reputation is built on our commitment to service, quality, design, and product development, allowing us to become an indispensable shearling source for many better retailers.

Gimpex Ltd prides itself on being an ecologically conscious company manufacturing high quality shearling garments. We utilize only the finest tanning technology from the world’s most reputable tanners. All the lamb skins we use are a renewable and sustainable resource. The tanners that obtain the hides we use, are sourced solely as a by-product of the food industry or from animals that succumb to natural causes. At Gimpex Ltd. we strive to partner with other ecologically conscious companies, which protect the environment that provides our valuable resources.
