Thanks
to a $5,000 gift from WestGroupe, 10 Quebecois with sight loss now own modern
smartphones. Their generous donation to the CNIB Foundation’s Phone It Forward
program provided Sébastien Bolduc with a free smartphone and one-on-one user
training.
See the coverage of the event:
“My goal is to be as independent as I can be in spite
of my blindness,” said Sébastien Bolduc after receiving his new phone.
Even though he has yet to complete all the formal
training, Sébastien says his smartphone has already helped him in several
ways.
“I ask it quite a lot of things! I use Siri to
wake up in the morning, to tell me the time, to read my emails and to find
information online,” says Sébastien. “I also use my new phone to
listen to podcasts, which is something I could not do before, and I even
managed to check out a YouTube video.”
In addition to the 10 smartphones, WestGroupe’s
donation is enabling CNIB to provide smartphone training to ensure recipients
acquire the necessary skills to make the most of their devices.
Sébastien is continuing to learn how to use the device
and hopes to become proficient.
“I still have a lot to learn about the phone’s
different features, but it has already changed my life and I could not be more
grateful,” says Sébastien.

Preliminary 2019 net sales of the Continuing Operations equaled Euro 939.0 million, up 3.1% at current exchange rates compared to Euro 910.7 million in 2018.
The wholesale business increased by 5.2% at
current exchange rates. In 2019, the performance at constant currency of the wholesale
revenues was positive by 3.2% in Europe, while it remained slightly down, by
0.6%, in North America despite the business recovery achieved in the 4th
quarter.
The year marked significant business
progress in Asia, up 19.2% at constant exchange rates, while sales in the Rest
of the World recorded an improvement of 1.1%.
2019 wholesale performance was driven by
the good results achieved by the Group’s own core brands Carrera, Polaroid and
Smith, overall growing by 5.7% at constant exchange rates, and by the positive
performance of the main licensed brands.
In the 4th quarter of 2019, the quarterly
wholesale performance was up 1.8 reflecting on one side the above-mentioned recovery
of the North American business, up 4.2%, and the ongoing strength of
Asia-Pacific, up 8.9%, on the other a slowdown of 4.0% in Europe. Preliminary
total net sales of the Continuing Operations in the quarter equaled Euro 230.4
million, down 2.8% at current exchange rates and 4.3% at constant exchange
rates mainly due to the expected decline in Europe of the business related to
the supply agreement with Kering, which as was communicated in October 2019,
has been renewed until the end of 2023.
The WAVE collection from Jean-François Rey includes frames that have a fluid and light design, as if they were in movement. Designs are driven by the architectural geometry of the top, focusing attention and attracting to the eyes. An artistic and manufacturing marvel created by folding and colouring thin strips of stainless-steel ribbons, coloured separately, by hand, in a precise, clean, and efficient technical manner. The result is WAVE frames that create a graphic effect that is visually powerful.
