    Our Vancouver office got much toastier when Minoru Hirano, owner of Granted Clothing (grantedclothing.com), stopped by recently with a bag full of wooly goodies. A local family company that offers an array of knitted sweaters, toques, mittens, vests– even leg warmers, all of which are handmade in Vancouver. The company’s dedication to local business has led them to collaborate with the likes of the Canucks and Canadian brands Skull Skates and Sitka (skateboarding and surf gear, respectively). We asked Hirano about joining the family business and keeping things local.
