π Investigation Breakdown
Video Script & Investigation
When you shop for baby and kids clothing, it is easy to assume the store brands are local. But Carterβs, OshKosh Bβgosh, and Gerber are all US-owned. Four labels here are genuinely ours. Mini Mioche is Canadian-owned, and knits, dyes, and sews its organic baby apparel in Toronto, Ontario. Parade Organics is still run by the founders who have designed it in Vancouver since 2004. Petit Lem, in Saint-Laurent, Quebec, is a brand of the family-owned Montreal company Groupe Lemur. And Whistle and Flute is run from Victoria, British Columbia, by the family who founded it in 2012. Designed in Canada. Canadian-owned. Canadian rooted.
