New partnership champions sleep as key to health, wellbeing and performance
TORONTO, May 27, 2021 /CNW/ - Today, Sleep Country Canada Holdings Inc. ("Sleep Country" or the "Company") (TSX: ZZZ) proudly announced its partnership with Canadian tennis sensation and Grand Slam champion Bianca Andreescu. The partnership is the first of its kind for the specialty sleep retailer, as it advances its purpose of transforming the lives of Canadians by awakening everyone to the power of sleep. Sleep Country is honoured to welcome Andreescu as a Brand Ambassador – a true sleep champion who credits sleep as fundamental to her overall health and wellness regime and vital to her success on the court.
Sleep Country's vision is to elevate sleep's role within the wellness realm and mobilize Canadians to prioritize their sleep through small, attainable steps that will eventually transform into healthy habits. As Canada's trusted sleep specialist, Sleep Country strives to help every Canadian recognize the intrinsic role sleep plays in their health and wellbeing and help them find the right sleep essentials to support their wellness journey.
Andreescu and Sleep Country's new partnership brings together two Canadian icons that share a strong dedication to championing sleep as an essential pillar of health and physical, mental and emotional wellbeing. As an elite athlete, Andreescu actively prioritizes her sleep to achieve peak performance.
"Sleep is such a key part of my health and wellness which translates to my success on court. Whether it's giving my body rest to recover from a match or keeping my mind sharp and focused in the moment – sleep allows me to stay at the top of my game," said Andreescu. "Sleep Country and I wholeheartedly believe that sleep is the catalyst for optimal performance and for living a healthier and happier life. I look forward to partnering with Sleep Country to inspire Canadians to harness the power of sleep."
The collaboration features a television and digital campaign centered on the notion that 'There's No Dream Without Sleep'. Whether you are training for the biggest tournament, like Andreescu, or preparing for work, home or school – sleep is the fuel that powers your day and allows your body to reset and recharge to perform at your best.
"We are on a mission to elevate sleep as a key pillar of health and wellbeing. We are so proud to team up with Bianca to awaken Canadians to the power of sleep," said Stewart Schaefer, President, Sleep Country Canada and Dormez-vous. "Understanding that Bianca prioritizes her sleep and places as much importance on it as her diet, exercise and training, reinforces how important sleep is to world-class athletes and everyday Canadians alike. Sleep is the catalyst to a happier and healthier life and enables us all to achieve our own personal dreams."
Sleep Country will be cheering Bianca on as she gears up for the 2021 Grand Slam tournaments and continues to compete for championship titles. There's no dream without sleep.
