Mitchell Wein

Mitchell Wein was born into the watch business. He has been immersed in the family business, Marathon Watch Company, for his entire life. From riding his tricycle through the building’s warehouse, offices, and neighbouring companies, as a young child; to working closely with his father Leon Wein and following grandfather Morris Wein; to leading the company himself in new directions, by bringing Marathon online to all consumers.
 

Marathon Watch exhibits the values that Mitchell has set forth, by creating a sense of community within the company. Whether it is in the Head Office in Vaughan, Canada, or the watch factory in La Chaux-de-Fonds, Switzerland, Marathon is a family. A family that has stood the test of time and will for generations to come.
 

Mitchell helps to fund various initiatives at the UJA, including their Door to Door program. This partner program helps give dignity for impoverished Jewish seniors and Holocaust survivors.
 

In addition, Mitchell is working with UJA and the LGBTQ+ community to increase engagement and knowledge. What is most important for Mitchell is to highlight a message of inclusion for all, no matter their walk of life.
