Frank And Oak, founded in Montreal in 2012 by Ethan Song and Hicham Ratnani as an online menswear shop, sells minimal casual staples: organic-cotton tees, denim, knitwear and recycled- and hemp-fibre outerwear, plus womenswear, with sustainable-materials messaging. Parent UGC Canada Holdings filed for creditor protection in December 2024 citing roughly $71 million in debt. In April 2025 the Quebec Superior Court approved the sale of the brand's intellectual property to Montreal's Lamour Group and Thread Collective Inc.; all 14 stores closed, the former parent wound down, and the new owners now run Frank And Oak as an e-commerce brand while weighing a relaunch.
