Covergalls
A partnership between Mark’s Commercial and Sudbury-based workwear company Covergalls was recently announced, an exciting step in making workwear more accessible for women in trades and heavy industries. Through the partnership, Covergalls’ innovative designs, including coveralls, cargo pants, flame-resistant hoodies, and high-visibility workwear, will be distributed to all 383 Mark’s locations across Canada.
Mark’s Commercial, the business-to-business wholesale division of Mark’s, connects suppliers to a network of over 15,000 businesses nationwide. This means that Covergalls’ products, engineered to better fit the female form, will now have access to a broad and diverse customer base.
Covergalls founder Alicia Woods created the brand to address a gap in the market resulting from ill-fitting work apparel and personal protective equipment (PPE) designed predominantly with men in mind. These issues often lead to discomfort and even safety hazards. She created Covergalls as a brand committed to providing functional, comfortable, and safe clothing options for women in demanding industries.
The partnership between Covergalls and Mark’s Commercial reflects a broader movement toward inclusivity and equity in male-dominated industries. By offering gear tailored for women, the companies are helping to remove barriers that have long existed for female professionals in the trades.
