Frequently Asked Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

What is One Red Maple?

One Red Maple is the retail Robin Hood. Our browser extension and mobile app help you find and purchase virtually any product from locally owned stores nearby. Our browser extension's unique "intercept" technology lets you shop on any Big Retail or brand website and find the exact match, or useful alternative, right in your local market.

What do you mean by 'shop local' and why should I shop locally?

At One Red Maple, we believe in strong, sustainable, and vibrant local economies. One Red Maple's database features virtually all inventory in your locally owned stores. Those stores could be independently owned or franchises. When you shop locally owned, up to 63% of all dollars you spend there are reinvested into your local economy compared to just 14% when shopping Big Retail (according to a 2019 study conducted by Civic Economics and Loco BC).
