Bringing retailers and wholesalers together through a dynamic community that helps make buying and selling footwear, apparel, and accessories smoother, smarter, and more connected.


AFA Canada brings the footwear, apparel, and accessory community together — creating a vibrant platform where retailers and wholesalers can connect, collaborate, and grow.

We exist to make the business of buying and selling easier, stronger, and more enjoyable for everyone in the industry. Through events, education, and industry support, AFA Canada serves as a trusted hub for sales and marketing insight across Canada’s footwear, apparel, and accessory markets.

Our volunteer Board of Directors — made up of experienced leaders from both retail and wholesale — works together to champion the industry, support innovation, and foster meaningful connections.

At the heart of AFA Canada is United in Style, our bi-annual trade show designed to bring buyers and sellers together under one roof. More than just a marketplace, the show is a place where ideas are shared, partnerships are built, and the industry comes together to learn, network, and move forward.
