Factors
Ownership
100.0 reportedCA 100%
The vendor's own about page and a published founder interview describe Truth Belts as founded and still run by designer Renia Pruchnicki, who started the line from her Toronto apartment in 2001; no acquisition, investor, or parent company was found in press or web search. Corporations Canada returns zero federal results for "Truth Belts", indicating a provincial or unincorporated entity; the Ontario Business Registry could not be searched (it requires an interactive session), so the exact legal structure is not confirmed.
