Made in CA was founded in 2018 out of frustration with the tariff battles with the U.S. and the unfair practices of other trade partners. As Canadians, we wanted to take action. That’s why we started compiling a list of products and services made in Canada—so consumers could feel confident that their dollars were making the greatest possible impact on the Canadian economy.

This initiative is entirely grassroots and currently run by just one person. There’s no large team or funding behind it. It’s a passion project that I work on in my spare time, driven by a deep commitment to helping Canadians support local businesses and make informed decisions. So, I appreciate your patience and kindness with any feedback!

We also recognize that how “Canadian” a product is can vary—whether it’s based on ownership, sourcing of raw materials, or where it’s manufactured. Our goal is to present as much information as we can find and let you decide. That’s why submissions from Canadians across the country are so important. Whether it’s a local business in a small town that sells online, or a national brand that produces in Canada, your contributions help us highlight products and services from every corner of Canada. It’s through this collective effort that we can truly represent and celebrate the diversity of Canadian businesses.
