Takasa's About Us page says the company was started by its own founders, a couple who could not find ethically made textiles and decided to make their own, with no mention of a parent company or outside investor. Corporations Canada's federal search returned zero results for Takasa, consistent with the site footer naming it a BC Benefit Company (a provincial registration); the BC Registry itself could not be checked for directors or a significant-control register.

Takasa's FAQ states plainly that its bed sheets, duvet covers, comforters, and towels are made in India, while duvet inserts and pillows are made in Canada and the USA. Bedding and bath linens are the bulk of the product line, so the mix weights India (OTHER) heavily and splits the remainder between CA and US for the inserts and pillows.

Takasa's certifications page describes full seed-to-finished-product traceability for its GOTS and Fairtrade cotton but does not name the country where the cotton is grown or the fabric is woven. Since the finished sheets and towels are sewn in India, the mix assumes the cotton and fabric mostly originate there too, while pillows and duvet inserts pull materials through their Canadian and US manufacturers; this split is an estimate, not a sourced figure.
