The Unscented Company

Baléco Inc. (federal corporation 803022-7, incorporated 2011-11-16, status active, registered office 5530 rue Saint-Patrick, Montreal) lists founder Anie Rouleau of Westmount, Quebec as its sole director and, in the individuals with significant control register confirmed 2025-12-19, as holding more than 75 percent of the shares directly and individually. The privacy policy names Baléco Inc. as the entity trading as The Unscented Company. Holders of the remaining under 25 percent are not disclosed; the company pitched 10 percent for 300K on Dragons' Den in 2019 and any such minority stake would still be Canadian. The Registraire des entreprises du Québec was not queried, and no acquisition or private-equity coverage was found in the sources reachable today.

The vendor states that 80 percent of its products undergo their most substantial transformation in Canada, at Beloeil on Montreal's South Shore, and holds the Fabriqué au Québec certification; liquid hand and body soap, shampoo, conditioner, lotion, deodorant and laundry pacs are each labelled made in Canada. The soap bar and lotion bar are labelled made in the USA, and the Aleppo soap is made in Syria by a partner. The CANADA List adds that some cleaning tabs are made in Europe, which the vendor's own pages do not confirm, so the EU and OTHER shares are small estimates around the vendor's 80 percent figure. Whether the Beloeil plant is company-owned or a contract manufacturer is not stated.

Head office and customer service are at 5530 Saint-Patrick in Montreal, production is in Beloeil, Quebec, and the team page names roughly twenty staff with no office outside Quebec; the vendor says it is expanding into the United States through retailers but names no US employees or location.

Every product page says globally sourced ingredients, and the formulas rely on plant-derived surfactants, RSPO palm oil and cocoa butter that are largely imported; the vendor's claim that 80 percent of its purchases come from privately owned Canadian businesses speaks to supplier ownership and packaging rather than raw material origin, so the split is an estimate with Canadian credit for packaging, water and domestic suppliers. The storefront runs on Shopify but the vendor sells through many retailers, so platform dependence is not a control point.
