A family-owned Canadian business with roots in Montreal, Stokes was founded in 1935 by Mr. Philip Shiveck and his wife Mildred. Originally starting as a collectibles store called Shiveck’s, it rebranded to Stokes in 1950, taking its name from the pottery-famous city of Stoke-on-Trent in England. The business has expanded into a national chain over the decades, and it also operates a sister brand called thinkkitchen, which focuses specifically on kitchenware. Stokes provides several convenient options for its customers, including the ability to buy online and pick up orders in-store for free. They also offer delivery on orders over a certain amount. For those seeking assistance, the business provides customer service through email and a live chat feature.
