The vendor does not disclose ingredient origin; The CANADA List says the soaps use primarily local ingredients and the vendor credits Deco Labels of Toronto for bottle sleeves, but surfactants and fragrances for value liquid soap are commodity chemicals usually imported from the US and Asia. The split is an estimate weighting Canadian water, packaging and labels against imported surfactants and fragrance.
