Is E.D. Smith Canadian?
Verdict
Made here, foreign owned
Founded in Winona, Ontario in 1882 and still produced there, but owned by US-based TreeHouse Foods since 2007.
What this verdict means
The product is manufactured in Canada by Canadian workers, but the company that owns the brand is foreign. Your money supports Canadian plants and Canadian supply chains; the profit leaves the country. Whether that counts depends on what you are trying to support.
