Affordable Clinical Eyewear Retailers

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

'Clearly' is Opening Tens of New Stores Across Canada

— February 18, 2022 — Business
'Clearly' is a multinational retailer of vision care products and accessories that currently distributes its Clearly eyewear in Canada, Australia, U.S.A, and New Zealand. Clearly has announced a new commitment to expand its current Canadian retail presence. Currently, Clearly operates four stores across Canada, and the business wants to see this number increase to over 15 in the next two years.

Two things that are unique about Clearly as opposed to other eyewear retailers are its in-store clinics and help desks, and its accessible price points. Clearly's retail locations are laid out such that the range of eyewear products are on display around the outer walls of the store while the floor space of the building is occupied by several help desks, equipped with tablets, stools, and storage space for tools.

The in-store clinic allows for customers to undergo base-level eye testing, while the help desks allow for customization and testing of products with the help of an agent. Clearly effectively provides end-to-end eyewear service for customers with its innovative retail layout. On top of this, the services and products sold by Clearly coming in a range of price points as low as $9 CAD.
