Red Leaf Pet Food
Canadian-owned · made in Canada
Freeze-dried-infused dry dog kibble and pate, formulated and produced in Canada and sold through pet specialty, mass, and grocery retailers.
Red Leaf is a dog food brand selling freeze-dried-infused dry kibble and pate, which it says is formulated and produced in Canada using locally sourced fruit, vegetable, and protein ingredients. No legal entity name, HQ city, or ownership structure is published on its site, and a federal corporate registry search for the brand name returned nothing, so ownership and headquarters are best-judgment estimates rather than confirmed facts.
Factors
Ownership
100.0 inferredCA 100%
The vendor's about page frames the brand as founded by "a couple Canadians sitting around a kitchen table" but never names a legal entity, founder, or corporate parent. A Corporations Canada federal search for "Red Leaf Pet Food" and for "Red Leaf" returned no matching corporation, which usually means a provincial incorporation under a different legal name, not reachable by fetch. No Wikipedia, Wikidata, CANADA List, or madeinca.ca record exists for the brand, and no press coverage of a sale or foreign investment was found, so this mix assumes Canadian ownership from the absence of any contrary evidence rather than a confirmed registry or filing.

No HQ city, province, or employee count is published; the contact page lists only a toll-free number with Eastern time business hours and the site runs bilingual English and French navigation, both consistent with a Canadian office but not conclusive. No careers page or LinkedIn-style headcount source was reachable, so this mix follows the brand's own Canadian framing rather than a confirmed location.
- Red Leaf Canadian Dog Food - About Us · the vendor's own site “We kept things close to home, too. Working with Canadian farmers and suppliers, supporting the same communities we’re part of, and keeping things local.”

The FAQ states all fruits, vegetables, and proteins are locally sourced from Canadian farmers and suppliers, but does not address grains or the vitamin and mineral premixes typical in dry kibble formulation, which are commonly imported. This mix credits the named produce and protein inputs to Canada and estimates a smaller imported share for the ingredients the vendor does not describe; no supplier list or country-of-origin breakdown was published to confirm the split.
