About The Earth Collection

Open your own independent THE EARTH COLLECTION concept store and prosper from the market for fashionable, eco friendly garments made from 100% natural fibres. This is not a franchise. There are no fees and no royalties. Introduced to North America, this proven concept is sold in over 500 stores world wide. We are looking for licensees in Ontario. The concept does particularly well in resort/tourist communities.
