BIXI MONTRÉAL Welcomes Fido and Clearly as its New Collaborative Partners!

Canada NewsWire

MONTREAL, April 10, 2018 /CNW Telbec/ - BIXI MONTRÉAL is pleased to welcome two new collaborative partners this year, the cellular telephone service provider Fido and the online eyeglass retailer Clearly. They will be joining Manulife, BIXI's presenting partner since 2016, in providing an exceptional customer experience, promoting the BIXI service to a maximum number of citizens and making it even more accessible for everyone. As part of these new partnerships, Fido and Clearly will be the presenters of an exclusive promotional activation, the details of which will be revealed soon.

"We're really excited to team up with BIXI MONTREAL this summer," said Nancy Audette, Vice President of Fido Wireless. "At Fido, we're all about connecting our customers to the people and the things that they love, so we're looking forward to sharing more details on this collaboration in the coming weeks."

"We're excited to be BIXI's new partner, just in time for their 10th anniversary. As the largest online retailer of eyeglasses and contact lenses in Canada, Clearly is also celebrating an important milestone this year, as it's our tenth year of selling glasses," said Arnaud Bussières, CEO of Clearly. "So a partnership between BIXI and Clearly seemed natural, not just because we share the same anniversary, but because we believe that there's a strong link between sight and the ability to appreciate all the beauty that Montreal has to offer. Our mission is to offer better vision to everyone to help guide them in all that they do, and that's why we offer a wide range of products, such as glasses as low as $50 and sunglasses and contact lenses at affordable prices. Our partnership with BIXI is another way for us to help Montrealers and Bixists see the best of Montreal this summer."

THREE NEW ACTIVATION PARTNERS
This year, Café Barista will be offering discounts to BIXI key holders at their participating independent cafés, while the Beaubien and du Parc Cinemas will be offering 2-for-1 tickets on Sunday nights all season long. The Montreal Museum of Fine Arts will be offering BIXI key holders a discounted admission fee for certain expositions.

BIXI MONTRÉAL's valued media partners will be continuing to show their support this year: LA PRESSE and Astral Affichage. Rachelle-Béry will also continue to offer snacks on all six Free BIXI Sundays offered by Manulife.

"I would like to personally thank our valued partners and collaborators who will be continuing to offer enriching experiences to our loyal customers this season. They also contribute by helping to promote BIXI, a fast, simple and inexpensive way of getting around the city to experience the social and economic activities of Montreal!" said BIXI-MONTRÉAL's chairperson, Marie Elaine Farley
