Lowes Manhattan Pty Ltd

Lowes was featured in Ragtrader’s 2024 Technology Report, where Sarann Ryan, our Chief Information Officer gave a rundown of how we’re using radio frequency identification (RFID) technology to ensure that we always have products of all sizes in-stock for our customers. Not only are we using it to benefit our customers, but it also helps our staff as it shortens the stocktaking process from days to literal minutes.   The future of fashion is already here, and it’s easier than ever to see how the industry is benefitting from this technology.

This week, we’re launching our bucket hat campaign with Hospitals United For Sick Kids! During the campaign period, $10 from every bucket hat sold is donated to Hospitals United for Sick Kids. Customers can also choose to donate more to the cause. To put this in perspective, last year, we sold 25,937 bucket hats, resulting in $266,254 being donated. Hospitals United for Sick Kids is the only national alliance of hospitals for children in Australia, and they’re working across the country to make kids’ hospital stays as short and comfortable as possible. Through funds raised, the goal is to reduce family disruption caused by childhood hospitalisation and substantially lower the impact on the healthcare system by ensuring children can be looked after at home. The money raised by Lowes through the sale of bucket hats is used by Hospitals United for Sick Kids to fund in-hospital, at home or near to home research, therapies, programs, and equipment, allowing children to spend more time at home with their families while they’re dealing with illness. The best part of the campaign is that all bucket hats in store count towards the promotion, meaning customers can help donate to a cause while still buying a product that they genuinely love.

“Once you pop, the fun don’t stop!” We teamed up with Pringles for a vibrant new collab featuring a range of colorful clothes and accessories. Our competition offered fans a chance to win two complete sets of the Pringles collection, plus a year's supply of Pringles! With a Matchy Matchy shorts and shirt set, socks, underwear, thongs and a bucket hat, the collection is fun, colourful, and most importantly - novel! Lowes customers love the novelty of Hawaiian shirts and licensed socks and underwear. Over the years, we’ve embraced many brand collaborations, including Twisties and Cheezels - and turning your favorite snacks into stylish outfits is our specialty. We’re always on the lookout for brands to collaborate with, so if you’re as keen as we are, feel free to reach out!

Every year, Lowes partners with the Mark Hughes Foundation to raise money for brain cancer research. As a part of this year’s campaign, Lowes CEO and Co-Owner, Linda Penn, took a tour of the John Hunter Research Facility, where she met up with Mark Hughes. The facility is a collaborative research centre where scientists and clinicians come together in the fight to beat brain cancer.   We were able to see, first-hand, the work being done thanks to the Beanie for Brain Cancer campaign, and how the money raised by Lowes, a whopping $789,419 this year from selling over 31,000 beanies, and a total of $5,448,578 since 2019, has been able to assist in the research efforts of the Mark Hughes Foundation.   Of course, transporting that many beanies is a huge effort, so a special thanks to Team Global Express for their freighting and courier services, which included returning the unsold beanies to the Mark Hughes Foundation.   Let’s beat brain cancer, one beanie at a time.

We would like to recognise International Day of Charity, celebrated on September 5th. Charity, along with volunteerism and philanthropy, fosters social bonding and contributes to the development of inclusive and resilient societies. At Lowes, we proudly partner with numerous charitable organisations. Thanks to the philanthropic vision of our CEO/Co-Owner Linda Penn and the unwavering support of our dedicated team, we are honored to contribute to many charities that are making a significant difference in people’s lives every day. We want to highlight and express our gratitude to incredible organisations such as Sydney Children's Hospitals Foundation (SCHF), Children's Medical Research Institute, Mark Hughes Foundation, Hospitals United For Sick Kids, among others. Their remarkable contributions and life-changing work in the charity sector are truly inspiring. We celebrate these organisations, our dedicated staff, and our valued Lowes customers whose purchases help support these worthy causes and contribute to the broader community.

To reduce our environmental impact, Lowes has been working alongside UPPAREL since 2020.  By diverting our discontinued school wear items to UPPAREL, Lowes plays a part in working to close the loop on textile waste. This redundant stock becomes reused, repurposed, or recycled within the UPPAREL eco-system. The items are either donated to charity partners or transformed into another reusable material.   Over the last four years, Lowes, in partnership with UPPAREL has diverted 23,826kg of textiles from landfill and prevented 83,393.8kgs of greenhouse gases. We are proud to continue working with UPPAREL and look forward to being able to create a better planet and brighter future for the next generation.  

Since 1998, Lowes has been a proud partner of the Children's Medical Research Institute (CMRI) and the Jeans for Genes AU initiative. To celebrate this year’s campaign, we hosted an afternoon tea, in our Head Office. We invited the team to come together, to learn more about the importance of the CMRI and to share in some delicious treats.    Lowes CEO and Co-Owner, Linda Penn, generously shared her own story and involvement with the CMRI, a charity she and her family hold close to their hearts. We also welcomed Jane Ruston from the CMRI who spoke to the amazing work the foundation is doing to spread awareness of genetic diseases and working to find cures for sick kids.   Throughout our 26-year partnership with the Children’s Medical Research Institute, Lowes has proudly donated over $1,118,917. This year, in an effort to raise more funds and support this essential research, Lowes is donating $5 from every pair of jeans sold, until 1 September. This marks an important part of our contribution to support the CMRI, because together, we can make the incurable, curable 💙
