Answer

How do I find a Canadian manufacturer?

Search Checked Canadian's [directory](/directory) by category and province, read each listing's city and product lines, and prefer a listing with a dated check over a self-declared percentage. Manufacturers not yet listed may still be genuinely Canadian; the directory's coverage grows over time.

Search by category and province

The directory filters by category, province and check status so you can shortlist manufacturers before you contact them.

Confirm directly with the manufacturer

Ask which manufacturer makes the product line, where its last substantial transformation happens, and roughly what share of direct cost is Canadian — a manufacturer that has done the arithmetic usually answers quickly.

See how checks work and pricing for manufacturers.

Listing is free. A check is one form, a few documents, and a date on the mark.
