Wildcraft is a Toronto natural skincare, body and hair care brand founded in 2014 by Laura Whitaker, who describes it as an Indigenous-owned business. All products are handmade in small batches in Toronto and sold direct, through Well.ca, Shoppers Drug Mart, Whole Foods Market and independent health stores. The vendor does not disclose where its organic botanicals and oils are sourced, so the inputs mix is an estimate.

Factors

Ownership

CA 100%

The vendor names Laura Whitaker as founder and calls itself an Indigenous-owned business operating in Toronto, Ontario, with no investor or parent mentioned anywhere on the site. The CANADA List records the owner as Wildcraft Care Inc. of Canada. Corporations Canada returned zero results for Wildcraft Care, which points to an Ontario corporation, and the Ontario Business Registry could not be checked, so the entity and its shareholders are unverified.

The company operates from Toronto, Ontario, where its products are also made, so the head office and production team sit in one Canadian location. The about page describes a growing team but gives no headcount. No careers page was found and LinkedIn was not reachable.

Products are formulated from organic, unrefined botanicals, plant oils and minerals, and packaged in glass and aluminum, but the vendor names no supplier or country of origin. Carrier oils, essential oils and botanicals such as yuzu, turmeric and calendula are mostly grown outside Canada, so the split is an estimate that gives Canada a minority share for local herbs, labour and packaging. The CANADA List likewise notes that some ingredients may be imported.

  • About Us - Wildcraft vendor_statement “All products are expertly formulated with organic, unrefined botanicals and naturally occurring minerals”
  • Our Impact - Wildcraft vendor_statement “Glass and aluminum are our first choice whenever possible because they're widely recyclable”
  • The CANADA List directory “Some ingredients may be imported.”
