Garant snow shovel

Garant is a leading Canadian brand specializing in the manufacture of tools for gardening, construction, and snow removal. Founded in 1895 as a small forge in Saint-François-de-la-Rivière-du-Sud, Quebec, the company has grown into a major international player in the tool market. Most Garant products, particularly their signature red snow shovels, are manufactured in their facility in Quebec, Canada, known for high-quality craftsmanship adapted to harsh northern climates.

In 2001, Garant was acquired by Ames Trugemper, and it is currently owned by The Ames Companies, Inc. The Ames Companies is a subsidiary of Griffon Corporation, a diversified management company based in the United States. Today, Garant remains a flagship brand for the Canadian market while benefiting from the global supply chain and distribution network of its American parent company.
