The Traveling Build-a-Teddy Bear Store was started in 2009 in Edmonton Alberta.
We were looking for a business that would work around our schedule and family life. We looked at a lot of different home business / home party plans and we weren't pleased with the number of hours a party would take. So we decided to start our own fun business. One that would be entertaining as well as helping children with hand coordination and for the elderly to have an activity that was simple but very hands on.
We never expected the popularity that came with this concept. We not only provide a cuddly plush animals we also have brought loved ones together in such events as Grandparents Day where Grandparents and Grandchildren get together and create a life time of memories with the making of an animal. We have also raised money for the Edmonton Cancer Foundation. We have brought comfort to children who have suffered a trauma. We have also done fundraisers for schools and more.
We now are expanding and we have IAK (Independent Animal Keepers) in British Columbia and Alberta. We look forward to covering across all of Canada in the future.
