Contact page names Josiane Hobeika as the owner and only contact, operating from a Montreal home workshop (Rosemont-La Petite-Patrie), consistent with a sole proprietorship. Corporations Canada's federal registry returned zero results for "Hobeika", which fits a sole proprietorship or provincial registration rather than a federal corporation; the Registraire des entreprises du Québec was not checked because it is bot-walled to fetches.

The site names FSC-certified paper and vegetable-based inks but does not say which mill or supplier, so the certification confirms responsible forestry, not country of origin. Blank stock for mugs and vinyl stickers is not sourced on the site either. This mix is an estimate: majority Canadian given the local, small-batch framing, with a share left for imported paper stock or blanks, since none of it could be confirmed.
