Far West Industries Inc.

Far West Industries Inc.

Far West Industries Inc. is Canada's leading manufacturer of
Gore-Tex outerwear. Since the company was established in
1977, Far West has specialized in producing Gore-Tex jackets and
pants for all outdoor pursuits. Far West products are
engineered to provide the highest comfort range against the
harshest Canadian winters. All product is manufactured in the
company owned, computerized factory in Vernon, British Columbia.
Contracts from other companies are accepted and Far
West's in-house design team is equipped to handle all customer
requests. Far West's domestic line was recently expanded to
include outdoor lifestyle canvas sportswear of garment washed
cotton jackets, pants, shorts and shirts. Included in the line is
a fleece program with many pieces capable of being zipped into
Gore-Tex shells. In upcoming months Far West will introduce a
line of printed velours in vests and jackets with or without W.L.
Gore's windstopper lining. Far West currently sells 90 percent
of its output to the Canadian market, but recent export contracts
have been fulfilled for Sweden, Italy, Spain, Andorra and the
United Kingdom. Far West is interested in developing markets in
Switzerland, Germany, Austria, Belgium, and Denmark. Argentina
and Chile are also target markets. Far West would consider sales
agencies and/or distributor agreements with interested companies.
