Our History
The History of Dracolite Through the Years
2001-2006
Founded in 2003, but active since 2001, Dracolite initially focused on creating jewelry inspired by the medieval style. Success was immediate: their creations were quickly found in around fifty points of sale around the world. Starting from a small workshop, the company quickly evolved into a workshop-boutique to meet an ever-growing demand. Products from local artisans were added to enrich the offer and the customer experience. In 2005, a leather workshop joined the jewelry and accessories, and, at the same time, the first clothing creations were also born.
2007-2013
In 2007, Dracolite acquired a building of nearly 6,000 square feet on two floors on the famous Plaza St-Hubert in Montreal. A turning point began: the brand gradually abandoned distribution to focus on its flagship store. The following year, the acquisition of the company Épopée marked a key step, allowing Dracolite to produce its own clothing collections locally.
2014-2016
Thirteen years later, in 2014, Dracolite has become an essential reference in the field of medieval creations. The company continues its mission to promote the talent of local artisans, thus enriching its unique offer. Dracolite also extends its presence internationally, exporting its medieval creations to many countries and sharing its passion beyond borders.
2017-2020
In January 2017, our designer opened her own business, Maison de couture by Véronique Lortie. Located literally next door, customers can now visit the designers at any time for custom projects or simply to discover the new creations.
2017-2020
Wanting to use the space of the former Salon de la noblesse, Dracolite created L'Échoppe des Aventuriers , an extension dedicated to Grandeur Nature. This new space is intended to be a stopover for all those in search of adventures, offering a place of discovery and preparation for any quest, with products inspired by the medieval and fantastic universe.
2021-Present
In May 2021, the Dracolite family expanded with the opening of a second boutique, this time in Vieux-Terrebonne, in the Lanaudière region. Faced with growing demand, we have expanded the medieval universe to new regions.
Located in a peaceful corner near Île des Moulins, this boutique invites you on a journey into the past. With a warm atmosphere, the Terrebonne team is ready to welcome you with open arms.
