Blackbird Security is excited to share that we have partnered with Sporting Life, a leading outdoor apparel and sports equipment provider, in 12 locations across Canada for ongoing tactical security services and loss prevention.
About Sporting Life
Sporting Life is a fashion and sports retail store specializing in footwear, sporting equipment and accessories for men, women and kids. The retailer has several locations across the country in Quebec, Ontario, Alberta, and British Columbia.
Sporting Life has been a Canadian staple for families since 1979, offering an array of outdoor apparel and goods for summer beach fun, fitness and spin classes, perfecting golf swings, biking through nature trails, hiking the Rockies, lounging on a boat, and much more.
Our Partnership
Sporting Life’s large format stores carry an array of premium brands and products that have been sourced from all over the world. The company proudly offers the best quality items and most sought-after brands to enhance an active lifestyle for their customers, whether it’s skiing, snowboarding, hiking, tennis, cycling, or free time outdoors.
A majority of the store’s merchandise is on display and accessible to visitors, including specialty and branded items. Customers can try on apparel and footwear for size and style, test sports equipment to ensure it’s the perfect accessory to up their game, and peruse their large selection of outer gear. As a result, their retail locations are a particularly vulnerable target of criminal behaviour.
In strategically partnering with Blackbird Security, the staff at Sporting Life locations can continue to provide their customers and their families with the best possible service, while ensuring their merchandise is safeguarded from unwanted theft.
Blackbird Security will be servicing all 12 Sporting Life locations seven days a week with on-site, highly trained tactical security services. Security guards will be stationed throughout their stores acting as visible crime prevention, receiving customers, reporting suspicious activities, and preventing potential theft.
