Neutrogena is a Los Angeles-founded skincare brand that Johnson & Johnson bought in 1994 and spun out into Kenvue Inc., a US public company (NYSE: KVUE) headquartered in Summit, New Jersey, with a pending merger into Kimberly-Clark, another US public company. The Canadian business is run by Kenvue Canada Inc. in Markham, Ontario, whose only Canadian plant, in Guelph, makes over-the-counter medicines rather than skincare. The vendor's own FAQ names walmart.ca and shoppersdrugmart.ca as retailers, and a Walmart Canada brand page was fetched; no other grocer could be confirmed.
Switch: Wholly owned by a single US public parent, Kenvue Inc. (NYSE: KVUE, Summit, New Jersey), per its FY2025 Form 10-K and Exhibit 21; the pending Kimberly-Clark merger would move control to another US public company.
Factors
Ownership
0.0 verifiedUS 100%
Kenvue Inc. is a Delaware corporation headquartered at 1 Kenvue Way, Summit, New Jersey, listed on the NYSE as KVUE, per its FY2025 Form 10-K, and its Exhibit 21 lists Kenvue Canada Inc. as a Canadian subsidiary. Corporations Canada shows Kenvue Canada Inc. (955601-0) as an active CBCA corporation excused from the significant-control register because it is a wholly owned subsidiary of an exchange-listed company. J&J holds no shares since May 2024 and the 10-K names no controlling holder, so ownership goes to the US headquarters and listing venue; the merger with Kimberly-Clark was still pending in the August 2026 10-Q and does not change the country.

Manufacturing
0.0 inferredCA 10% · EU 5% · other 15% · US 70%
Kenvue's 10-K says its in-house plants delivered about 60 percent of 2025 sales volume, with about 11 sites in the US and the rest in 58 other countries, but names no plant for any brand. Kenvue Canada's only Canadian plant, in Guelph, is described by Kenvue as making more than 100 over-the-counter medications such as Tylenol and Motrin, not skincare, so the CANADA List's claim that Neutrogena is made in Guelph is treated as unconfirmed and given a small weight. No country-of-origin label could be read from neutrogena.ca or Well.ca product pages, so this split is an estimate that assumes most Canadian-shelf Neutrogena is made at US plants and contract manufacturers.
- kvue-20251228 filing “Our in-house manufacturing footprint delivered approximately 60% of our sales volume during the fiscal year 2025, with the remaining sales volume being supplied by an extensive network of external manufacturing facilities operated by trusted third-party suppliers.”

Kenvue Canada Inc.'s registered office is at 88 McNabb Street, Markham, Ontario, per Corporations Canada, and Kenvue says its Guelph site has housed the Canadian arm of its manufacturing since 1978. Brand management, research and the global headquarters sit in Summit, New Jersey, per the 10-K, and Kenvue reports only 23 percent of its 22,000 employees in North America. The split between Canadian sales, distribution and plant staff and the US brand organisation is an estimate.

Kenvue's 10-K lists resins, silicon, pulp and corn derivatives, paper, agrochemicals, vegetable oils and oleochemicals as its principal raw materials, bought from about 12,000 suppliers in more than 100 countries. Skincare surfactants and emollients lean on palm and coconut oleochemicals from Southeast Asia, counted OTHER, while petrochemical bases, sunscreen actives and packaging for the North American market are assumed mostly US-sourced with some European specialty ingredients. No vendor-published sourcing breakdown was found, so this split is an estimate.
