Quebec brands are making their mark through vision and determination—a path Amazon supports by providing innovators with the tools, resources, and opportunities they need to connect with millions of customers. Here in Quebec, Amazon has formed a meaningful partnership with Les Produits du Quebec, highlighting local entrepreneurs through three distinct certifications: Product of Quebec, Manufactured in Quebec, and Designed in Quebec.
This collaboration makes it easier for customers to identify and support homegrown creators and business leaders who represent their community's unique character and craftsmanship. To celebrate this partnership, we're highlighting three remarkable Québec-based brands whose authentic stories showcase how local businesses maintain their distinctive Québécois identity while expanding their reach through Amazon's platform.
Kangoo: Eco-friendly solutions for modern families
Eco-Friendly Solutions for Modern Families Founded by long-time friends Juliane and Gabrielle, who became mothers around the same time, Kangoo emerged from a practical parenting challenge. When introducing solid foods to their daughters, they discovered that while pouches with mouthpieces were convenient for travel, single-use options created waste and added expense. Their solution? Creating reusable, eco-friendly pouches that offer families a simple alternative for snack time—providing a safe, economical, versatile, and mess-free way to serve nutritious ingredients to little ones. What makes Kangoo truly special is their commitment to community and sustainability. The brand partners with the Nicolet-Yamaska Association for People with Disabilities, where members help assemble orders monthly, fostering inclusion within the community. Additionally, Kangoo has planted 100 trees in Chaudière-Appalaches over two years to offset their carbon footprint, and they ship all products in compostable packaging.
Masdel: Three decades of comfort and relief made in Montreal
For 30 years, Masdel has designed and manufactured the Magic Bag—a favorite hot and cold compress brand across Québec and beyond—in Montreal. This best-selling brand offers natural, drug-free relief for aches, pains, and stress, earning the Parent-Tested, Parent-Approved seal of approval and the Top Product Award for two consecutive years. Masdel's mission is to enhance everyday life through trusted health, wellness, and beauty products. The company focuses on quality, innovation, and sustainable practices to deliver effective solutions for families. Their environmental responsibility includes using natural, renewable, and compostable materials when possible and promoting composting and upcycling at the end of product lifecycles.
Healthybud: Superfood nutrition for four-legged family members
Superfood Nutrition for Four-Legged Family Members Montreal couple Dana and Kyle founded Healthybud to bring superfood nutrition to dogs' diets. This all-natural pet wellness brand is reinventing the modern pet pantry with functional treats, meal toppers, and fully-balanced freeze-dried raw food. By focusing on premium ingredients and nutritional benefits, Healthybud helps pet owners provide their furry family members with the best possible care—a mission that resonates with pet lovers across Québec and throughout Canada.
