General Mills Canada is a wholly owned subsidiary of General Mills, Inc. (NYSE: GIS, Delaware-incorporated, Minneapolis), selling Cheerios, Betty Crocker, Old El Paso, Nature Valley and Pillsbury from a Mississauga head office. General Mills sold its Canadian yogurt business, Liberté and Yoplait included, to Sodiaal International in the third quarter of fiscal 2025, so dairy is dropped from this card. Manufacturing for the remaining brands appears to sit mostly at US plants; General Mills' 10-K lists no Canadian city among its named North America Retail facilities.

Switch: Wholly owned by US parent General Mills, Inc. (NYSE: GIS, Minneapolis); no independent Canadian ownership.

Factors

Ownership

US 100%

General Mills, Inc. is incorporated in Delaware, headquartered in Minneapolis, and listed on the NYSE (GIS) with a diffuse public shareholder base; allocated fully to the US by HQ and listing venue. General Mills Canada Corp does not appear as an active federal corporation, so it is a provincially incorporated subsidiary of the US parent.

General Mills' FY2026 10-K lists 41 global production facilities: 27 in the United States, 3 in Latin America and Mexico (including Irapuato, Mexico), and only 1 leased facility in Canada, unnamed and not described as a principal plant. None of the named North America Retail plants (Covington GA, Wellston OH, Milwaukee WI, Cedar Rapids IA, Buffalo NY and others) are in Canada, so Cheerios, Betty Crocker, Old El Paso, Nature Valley and Pillsbury sold here are estimated as mostly US-made, with a smaller share from Mexico (Old El Paso-style products) and an unconfirmed sliver from the single Canadian facility.

  • GENERAL MILLS, INC. Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2026 filing “As of May 31, 2026, we operated 41 facilities for the production of a wide variety of food products. Of these facilities, 27 are located in the United States, 3 in Latin America and Mexico, 5 in Europe/Australia, 4 in the Greater China region, 1 leased in Canada, and 1 in the Asia/Middle East/Africa Region.”

General Mills Canada Corp's own about-Canada page gives a Mississauga head office for the business that serves Canadian consumers; sales, marketing and support staff for the Canadian shelf brands are based there.

CA 15% · other 35% · US 50%

No vendor-published sourcing breakdown was found for the Canadian business. The remaining shelf brands are wheat- and oat-based, grain typically drawn from the US Midwest and Canadian Prairies; General Mills' own responsible-sourcing pages call out cocoa and palm oil, both imported inputs used across the Betty Crocker and cereal lines. Old El Paso's corn and Mexican-style ingredients likely track its Irapuato, Mexico plant. Split is estimated, not measured.
