Five decades ago, a young Aldo Bensadoun (or as he is affectionately known around here, Mr. B) set out to realize his dream of becoming the best shoe retailer in the world, and the rest is history.
Our Vision
That we can be stylish and still stay real. That we can be humble souls with generous hearts. That we can be brave enough to stand for something big.
And, that we can always have fun. This is our foundation – the source of love we infuse into every style we make.
And so much more...
Our History
The founder of the ALDO brand, Aldo Bensadoun, believed in more than just selling shoes. His shoe line debuted on six feet of department store shelf space in 1972 under the same name. Then, in 1978, the first ALDO freestanding store opened its door in Montreal, a city he fell in love with. Ever since he was always determined to create a new kind of business.
Our Products
When it comes to footwear, handbags, and accessories, we do it all. Yes, everything! From our standout design and development savvy (it’s all on-trend) to our extensive sourcing network, it’s our specialty on the digital, retail, and wholesale levels.
Our Values
We design footwear, bags, and accessories, but what we ultimately aim to make is a difference. By not just making things that look good, but by doing things that do good. By welcoming, celebrating, and showing love to everyone, everywhere. We believe in promoting diversity, equity, and inclusion throughout our organization, and we are proud to celebrate the social, cultural, and political achievements of all communities. Our values of Love, Respect, and Integrity resonate in the work we do and what we build as a team.
