Laval, QC CA · mustsociete.com
Must Société is a Quebec-based furniture retail group that in October 2025 rebranded from Home Société to unify four banners, Must, Maison Corbeil, Jardin de Ville, and La Galerie du Meuble, under one head office in Laval. It operates as a curated multi-brand retailer rather than a manufacturer, selling a handful of Canadian furniture designers alongside a larger number of European and American import brands through its own stores.
Factors
Ownership

The vendor's terms of service name G2MC Inc., incorporated in the Province of Quebec with a Montréal registered address, as the operating entity, and press coverage of the October 2025 rebrand names Walid Laaraba as President of Groupe Must Société with no mention of an outside investor or parent company. A federal Corporations Canada search for G2MC returned zero results, consistent with a Quebec provincial rather than federal incorporation; the Registraire des entreprises du Québec is bot-walled and could not be queried to confirm shareholders or the individuals with significant control.

Manufacturing

The vendor's home page lists Canadian designers Mobican, Romano, Trica, and Verbois alongside a longer list of imported premium brands: Ligne Roset, Cattelan Italia, Gloster, Cane-line, Dedon, Kettal, Manutti, Royal Botania, and Talenti, mostly based in continental Europe and the UK, plus Four Hands and BDI, both US brands. The mix here is estimated by brand count, not by published sales share, since Must Société sells finished furniture from other manufacturers rather than making its own; the split would move if any single brand accounts for a disproportionate share of revenue.

Inputs
53.1 inferredCA 27% · EU 60% · US 13%
As a multi-brand retailer of finished furniture rather than a manufacturer, Must Société does not disclose raw material sourcing; inputs are assumed to track the same country mix as the brands it sells, since the materials embodied in each piece originate with its maker. This is an estimate carried over from the manufacturing split, not an independently sourced figure.
