Connecting You to Nature

Our mission is to enable your enjoyment of the great outdoors. We encourage you to go out, have fun, and find your balance - embracing who you are and connecting with your passion. Whether it's fishing, catching waves, chasing sunsets, or camping, we aim to inspire a connection to nature. This has been our promise since 1968 and remains our promise today - millions of customers later.

Who We Are

Pelican International is a family of leading outdoor and paddlesport brands. We've evolved over the last 50+ years from a regional family business into a global industry leader, but we’re still dedicated to making outdoor recreation and watersports accessible to all. We continue to make most of our products in Canada and the United States, and we remain connected to our local communities – even as we now sell many of our products globally.

Our History

We proudly manufacture our products in Canada and the United States and have since we were founded in 1968. While we’ve grown to encompass many brands, we’re still a family business at heart, rooted in our local communities.
