Factors

Ownership

100.0 reported

CA 100%

The vendor's about page describes Cocoon as "a private Canadian company" founded and still identified with husband-and-wife owners David and Glyn Austin. A federal Corporations Canada search for the name returned zero results, consistent with a provincial Ontario incorporation rather than evidence against Canadian ownership; the Ontario Business Registry itself could not be checked from this environment. No press coverage of an acquisition or outside investor was found.

Manufacturing

CA 40% · EU 30% · other 15% · US 15%

The vendor states its custom case-goods and upholstery collection is handmade in Canada, and madeinca.ca lists it as manufacturing custom wood, metal, and upholstered furniture in Ontario, but the broader retail catalog is described on the vendor's own site as curated designer pieces from international makers with no country breakdown given. No revenue or product-count split between the Canada-made custom line and the imported catalog was found, so this mix is an estimate weighted toward a meaningful but not majority Canadian-made share.

The vendor says its Canadian-made custom line uses "the finest materials" without naming their origin, and its broader catalog draws on international designer furniture whose material sourcing was not documented. This mix mirrors the manufacturing estimate as a best judgment in the absence of any published material sourcing detail.
