Factors
Ownership
100.0 verifiedCA 100%
Corporations Canada's individuals with significant control register for Battat Inc., a federal corporation registered at 8440 Chemin Darnley in Montreal, names Joseph Battat and Dany Battat, each holding 25 to 50 percent of the shares from Quebec addresses. The consumer brands are owned by Maison Battat Inc., a Quebec corporation at the same address whose Registraire des entreprises record could not be fetched, so the family's control of that entity rests on the federal record, the vendor's own family-owned statements, and press naming Joe Battat as co-owner.

The FAQ lists wood, plastic, cloth, and metal as the materials but does not say where they come from; since all production happens through Chinese partners, the materials are assumed to be sourced in Asia. The small Canadian share reflects design, testing, and quality control done in Montreal and the Shopify platform behind the direct store, and the split is an estimate.
