Websites and brands for Montréal and Québec, in French.

French that reads like French

Plenty of Canadian stores treat French as a translation plug-in switched on the week before launch. Québec shoppers notice. Buttons that say "Ajouter au panier" next to product copy machine-translated from English, France-specific vocabulary, or a checkout that falls back to English all chip away at trust.

We plan French as a real locale from the start: its own URLs, its own page titles and descriptions for search, layouts that leave room for French running 15 to 20 percent longer, and vocabulary that suits a Québec reader. We've done this before at scale: for Seraya Fragrance we rebuilt the storefront and localised every interface string by hand into French, English and Spanish.

• Separate French URLs, titles and meta descriptions, not a translated overlay
• French product pages, cart, checkout and transactional emails
• Québec-friendly vocabulary reviewed by a native French speaker
• Bilingual packaging and brand language checked before print

Bilingual by design, not by obligation

If you sell to consumers in Québec, French has to be on your packaging, your website and your commercial communications, and recent changes to the Charter of the French Language have made businesses pay closer attention. We aren't lawyers and won't give you legal advice, but we build stores and packaging so that French is never the weaker version: equal prominence on labels, complete French content on the site, and a structure that makes keeping both languages in sync easy for your team.

What we do for Québec brands

The same services we offer everywhere, delivered in the language you work in. Shopify stores for brands that want to sell quickly with a checkout people trust. Custom-coded sites for brands that care about speed and design freedom. Brand identities and packaging for founders getting a product ready for shelves and screens. And 3D product visuals and video for launches, ads and product pages.

Many of our clients ship from Québec to the rest of Canada and the US, so we set up stores for multiple currencies and markets from the start rather than bolting them on later.

Who this is a good fit for

Québec founders selling products online who want one studio for the brand and the store, and who are comfortable working over video. If you need weekly in-person meetings in Montréal, a local agency will serve you better, and we'll happily say so.
