Abbott

Abbott Laboratories' FY2025 10-K (filed 2026-02-20, SEC CIK 0000001800) cover page shows an Illinois corporation headquartered at 100 Abbott Park Road, Abbott Park, Illinois, with common shares trading as ABT on the New York Stock Exchange. Ownership is diffuse with no controlling shareholder found, so it allocates to HQ country and listing venue, both US. Canada's federal registry lists the historic entity 'Abbott Laboratories, Limited' as inactive/amalgamated; Quebec's provincial registry, which would hold the current Canadian entity, was not checked (blocks automation).

Abbott's 10-K counts 13 Nutritional Products manufacturing sites worldwide but does not name their locations or countries. Abbott's own newsroom confirms its Sturgis, Michigan plant is an active infant-formula facility (FDA inspected it in April 2025 with no findings), and Health Canada/CFIA's 2022 recall of Abbott powdered formula in Canada matched the same lots recalled in the US over Sturgis contamination, showing Canada draws on the same US supply chain rather than a separate one. Beyond Sturgis, this session could not independently verify the other named US plants (Columbus OH, Casa Grande AZ) or the Ireland/Spain sites used for some specialty lines, so the split between them is estimated rather than sourced. No Canadian manufacturing was found anywhere.

• An Update on Our Sturgis Facility and a Misleading ProPublica Story | Abbott Newsroom vendor_statement “FDA concluded a 19-day inspection of our Sturgis, Mich. plant on April 4 and did not issue a single written Form 483 observation.”
• Certain Abbott brand powdered infant formula products recalled due to possible Cronobacter sakazakii and Salmonella - Canada.ca other “There have been reported illnesses in the United States associated with the consumption of these products. However, there have been no reported illnesses in Canada.”

similac.ca's own footer gives the Canadian entity's address as 8625 Trans-Canada Highway, Saint-Laurent, Quebec, matching the candidate card's HQ; no Mississauga address was found on the vendor's site. Marketing, regulatory and customer-service staff serving Canadian buyers work from that office, so people is counted fully CA; this is a vendor statement, not independently corroborated by a filing that names the office (Abbott's 10-K does not list business-unit offices by country the way some peer 10-Ks do).

No published sourcing breakdown was found. Product pages describe milk from cows not treated with artificial growth hormones but do not name a country; since every confirmed plant is in the US, the dairy is assumed US-sourced rather than shipped in from Canada's supply-managed system. Vegetable oils and DHA/ARA algal and fish oils common to infant formula are typically imported from a mix of countries, counted as OTHER. This is an estimate.
