Started by Chip Wilson in Vancouver only 20 years ago (1998), lululemon is now an international giant with stores across the globe. Long ago their products were made in Canada, but now are frequently made in Vietnam and other lower-cost countries.
They employ many Canadians in their retail outlets and at their head office in Vancouver, BC.
