Eurographics Inc. is a privately owned puzzle and art print publisher founded in 1987, with an eleven-person head office and warehouse in Montreal, Quebec that handles design, sales, and customer service. Its jigsaw puzzles are assembled at contract factories in the United States and China, including titles marketed as Canadian, and the vendor's own site does not disclose manufacturing locations. It sells direct from its own site and through Canadian retailers such as Mastermind Toys and Puzzles Canada.

Factors

Ownership

100.0 reported

CA 100%

Eurographics Inc. describes itself as a privately owned company on its own about us page, and a Puzzles Canada brand reference independently lists it as Canadian owned. No federal corporation record for this name turned up in Corporations Canada or in web search, consistent with provincial incorporation in Quebec, and the Registraire des entreprises du Quebec returned a 403 error on every attempt, so its ownership record could not be checked directly. No acquisition, parent company, or outside investor turned up in searches.

Manufacturing

0.0 inferred

other 50% · US 50%

Puzzles Canada's specification pages for multiple Eurographics puzzles, including one titled The Canadian Puzzle, all list the country of origin as USA/China, and its brand-level country of origin reference repeats the same split. An Amazon.com listing for the Surf Shack puzzle states it is made in the USA by Eurographics. The vendor's own site does not disclose manufacturing locations and no evidence of Canadian assembly was found, so the even US/China split is an estimate.

The vendor's contact page lists a single business address in Montreal, Quebec, and its about us page describes the same site as the head office and warehouse handling product development, sales, graphic design, and customer service. LinkedIn lists the company at 11 employees with no other office listed, and no second location was found.

The vendor describes its puzzles as made from recycled board and printed with vegetable based ink but does not say where those materials are sourced. With assembly split between contract factories in the United States and China, the board and ink are assumed to come from the same countries as assembly, so this split is an estimate.
