More information
A bit of history
Imex Sport originated in Boucherville, QC in 1996. Founded by Dominique Teisseire and France Parent, this company is a choice distributor of fencing equipment across Canada.
Parellel to this, Antoine Gouin founded his company, Phoenix Armoury, in 2016. Phoenix Armoury was mainly focused on service, including repair, maintenance and purchase-related advice. In 2018, Phoenix Armoury acquired Imex Sport and now operates under this banner.
Imex Sport, now operated by Antoine Gouin, offers all the ranges of products previously offered, in addition to a whole new range of products and services, across Canada.
Quality personnel
Antoine has been fencing since the age of 11. He has been teaching all three weapons for over 10 years in various clubs. In addition, he is a certified provincial repairer, provincial armorer and national armorer, and is head national armorer responsible for armorer training for the Canadian Fencing Federation.
The Imex Sport team is composed of competitive fencers who fence on provincial, national and international circuits, as well as parents of fencers, from different clubs in the Montreal, QC area. These people, all trained by Imex, continue to learn the art of sales and repairs, and will offer you the best service. Their fencing background is an incredible asset that you will be able to take advantage of with each visit.
A full spectrum of products
We stock the widest range of products of any distributor in North America. This allows us to offer services never seen before, such as the creation of custom weapons. We have also seen or tried the vast majority of products from all brands, and are uniquely positioned to advise and assist you in ordering products from any supplier. Our full range also allows us to meet the needs of foreign fencers attending tournaments in Canada.
Imex Sport, a mobile business
In a market dominated by web companies, it is more and more difficult to see and touch the products, or even to try them, before buying them. In addition to offering a complete website and a physical store, Imex Sport has equipped itself with a mobile kiosk to allow a maximum of customers to benefit from the expertise of our staff. The company travels to tournaments to offer the same recognized service, and also travels to clubs at the request of customers. Consult the calendar of events to know where to find us next.
