Factors

The vendor says the brand was founded by designer Mary-Jo Dorval in 2016 with $900 and she still runs production, with no mention of outside investors. Corporations Canada returned zero results for Trucs d'enfants and Kid's Stuff, so this is likely a Quebec-registered business; the Registraire des entreprises du Quebec could not be reached, so the legal entity and its owners are unverified.

Manufacturing

The vendor names organic cotton, bamboo blends, hemp and recycled polyester but gives no fabric origin. Canada mills little of these knits, so the split is an estimate that assumes mostly imported fabric bought through Montreal distributors, with the Canadian share covering local cutting, trims and Shopify as the store platform.
