The Definitive Resource for Independent Lifestyle Retailers in Canada
Put Your Product in the Spotlight
-
InStore offers all vendors the opportunity to submit product for free publicity, whether or not they support the magazine with advertising dollars.
-
This unique service involves unpacking, photographing, and featuring your products at no cost and repacking the items you have submitted if required, at no cost.
-
Our readers trust the magazine to only recommend products that have passed our personal smell test which is why we ask for product samples rather than accepting pickup art.
-
Before referring a product to our readers, we want to see it, touch it, gauge its weight, colour, dimensions, the quality of material and whether your labels are applied straight.
-
If you product is featured - and we try to feature at least one item from every company - we will send you a print copy of the magazine at no cost!

5. If products are to be returned, we ask that you arrange for courier pickup from our office via a courier service or in person. We do not return via Canada Post, as this requires travel to the post office. InStore doesn’t cover the cost of returning submitted samples.
