Fur BUYING

RRMFC will be running fur routes in December, March, and May to buy furs from Métis trappers around Manitoba. In addition to the scheduled posted fur routes, it’s also helpful to know that the Red River Metis Fur Company is willing to arrange a purchase of fur from a Métis trapper who may be in Winnipeg for other reasons. This flexibility can make it easier for Métis trappers to sell their furs without having to travel out of their way. The Red River Metis Fur Company’s policy is only buying fur from Métis citizens who have a valid Métis citizenship card and a provincial trapper’s license in the same name. This is aimed at promoting transparency and accountability in the fur trading process, as well as supporting Métis economic self-determination.
