Supporting Local Matters: Why Main Street Pool & Spa Stands Behind Canadian-Made Products

Supporting Local Matters: Why Main Street Pool & Spa Stands Behind Canadian-Made Products

At Main Street Pool & Spa, we believe in delivering the best for our customers while staying true to our values of quality, community, and sustainability. As a proudly Canadian business based in Uxbridge, Ontario, we prioritize locally sourced, high-quality products that benefit both our customers and the broader community.

By shopping with us, you’re doing more than just maintaining your pool or spa—you’re supporting local manufacturers, creating jobs, and strengthening the economy. Let’s explore why buying local matters and how Main Street Pool & Spa is committed to keeping Canada proud and our community strong.

 

The Economic Impact of Shopping Local

When you choose to support a local, independently owned business, you are making an investment in your community. Studies show that up to 70 cents of every dollar spent locally stays in the community, helping to fund essential services, create jobs, and sustain local businesses.

Compare that to:

  • U.S. retailers operating in Canada – Only about 14 cents per dollar remains in the Canadian economy, with profits and supply chains largely based outside of Canada.
  • Canadian big-box chains – While slightly better, these retain only 30-40 cents per dollar in local communities as a large portion of revenue flows to centralized corporate headquarters.
  • Mega online retailers (Amazon, Walmart, etc.) – These contribute as little as 5 cents per dollar back into local communities. Most profits are directed toward offshore accounts, international logistics, and large warehouse operations, providing minimal benefit to Canadian businesses and workers.

When you choose Main Street Pool & Spa, you’re making a conscious decision to support local jobs, invest in Canadian businesses, and contribute to the long-term economic stability of our region.

 

Prioritizing Canadian-Made Products Without Compromising Quality

At Main Street Pool & Spa, we believe that Canadian-made products offer incredible value, quality, and performance for our customers. That’s why we prioritize Canadian-made options whenever possible, including fiberglass pools manufactured in Kingston, Ontario, and Dazzle Water Care, a premium Canadian brand designed for our unique water conditions.

Fiberglass Pools: Manufactured in Kingston, Ontario

Fiberglass pools have become increasingly popular due to their durability, efficiency, and low-maintenance benefits. Our Canadian-made fiberglass pools stand out for several reasons:

Designed for Canadian Climates – Engineered to withstand fluctuating temperatures and harsh winters.
Durability & Longevity – Resistant to cracking, algae buildup, and corrosion.
Energy Efficiency – Fiberglass pools require less heating, reducing energy costs over time.
Fast Installation – Unlike concrete or vinyl pools, fiberglass pools are pre-manufactured, allowing for quicker installation.

By choosing a fiberglass pool made in Kingston, you’re ensuring your investment supports Canadian manufacturing and helps create jobs within our country.

Dazzle Water Care: The Best in Canadian Water Treatment

Water chemistry is essential to keeping your pool or spa safe and enjoyable. At Main Street Pool & Spa, we trust Dazzle Water Care, a proudly Canadian company offering eco-friendly, high-performance water treatment solutions.
