Canac mulls end of flyers

QUEBEC CITY — Canac is considering whether or not to bring back its paper flyers, which are currently suspended so as not to encourage non-essential in-store traffic. “We were already noticing for quite a while that the trend of checking out deals was moving to digital applications like Reebee,” said President Jean Laberge. “For months, we’ve observed almost the same sales results as with our traditional paper versions. Add to that the environmental considerations of a paper circular and recent events tied to the pandemic … and the decision makes itself. We hope that other retailers will go in the same direction and follow suit.”
