The Hudson's Bay Company, like most large retail and grocery chains, offers store brands, commonly referred to as "generic brands," which are lower cost alternatives to name brand products. The company has numerous store brands, each catering to a different consumer need or desire. Many products offered under the company's brands are private label products, which can be found in many different categories at most of the company's family of stores (The Bay, Zellers, Home Outfitters, Designer Depot, and Fields). This is a list of the Hudson's Bay Company's brands.
In order to differentiate the company's stores from other retailers, in 2002 HBC signed a deal with Federated Department Stores' Federated Merchandising Group (FMG) division in which FMG would supply private brand merchandise to The Bay stores. Due to this deal some of the company's brands are actually FMG store brands that are found in Macy's stores in the United States but are sold exclusively at HBC stores in Canada. All of these brands are only sold in the company's The Bay stores, except for Très You, which is sold at Zellers.

“Religious literature has eminent examples, and if we run over our private list of poets, critics, philanthropists and philosophers, we shall find them infected with this dropsy and elephantiasis, which we ought to have tapped.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“A man’s interest in a single bluebird is worth more than a complete but dry list of the fauna and flora of a town.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“He hung out of the window a long while looking up and down the street. The world’s second metropolis. In the brick houses and the dingy lamplight and the voices of a group of boys kidding and quarreling on the steps of a house opposite, in the regular firm tread of a policeman, he felt a marching like soldiers, like a sidewheeler going up the Hudson under the Palisades, like an election parade, through long streets towards something tall white full of colonnades and stately. Metropolis.”
—John Dos Passos (1896–1970)
“Shall we now
Contaminate our fingers with base bribes,
And sell the mighty space of our large honors
For so much trash as may be grasped thus?
I had rather be a dog and bay the moon
Than such a Roman.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
““Come, boys, I know there’s kindly hearts among so good a
crowd—
To be in such good company would make a deacon proud.”
—Hugh Antoine D’Arcy (1843–1925)
“On the other side, the conservative party, composed of the most moderate, able, and cultivated part of the population, is timid, and merely defensive of property. It vindicates no right, it aspires to no real good, it brands no crime, it proposes no generous policy, it does not build, nor write, nor cherish the arts, nor foster religion, nor establish schools, nor encourage science, nor emancipate the slave, nor befriend the poor, or the Indian, or the immigrant.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
