Founder Jaimie Harris is described by the vendor and by Retail Insider as running a small, independent, Toronto-based company, and madeinca.ca lists it as Canadian owned. Corporations Canada returned no federal corporation for This Is J, so it is likely an Ontario corporation; the Ontario Business Registry could not be searched and the legal entity name was not found on the site.

Bamboo viscose, cotton, and spandex yarns are bought from suppliers in tropical and subtropical regions and brought to Canada, where Canadian mills knit, dye, and print the fabric; labels and packaging are also Canadian. The even split between Canadian processing and imported fibre is an estimate, since no country of origin for the yarn is published. The store runs on Shopify, a Canadian platform.
