What's on this page

Shop 30 Canadian-made alternatives across 10 everyday categories, from laundry and cleaning to supplements, coffee, food and pet treats.

Shopping on Amazon may feel odd when you are trying to support Canadian companies. Smaller brands still need a storefront that can reach shoppers across the country, and Amazon gives them one. If you prefer to buy direct, go to the brand’s own website.

I checked the individual products rather than relying on a company name alone. The listing had to identify the item as made in Canada or, for coffee, roasted in Canada. I matched that wording to the brand’s own product information. Prices, ratings and review counts were checked on September 11, 2026, and may change.

Laundry

If you are replacing laundry products, these three give you different formats: liquid detergent from ATTITUDE, powder from Nellie's and detergent sheets from Tru Earth. The product listings identify each one as Canadian-made, so you can choose the format that suits your laundry room.

Dishwashing

For dishwashing, choose between refillable soap for the sink and pre-measured cubes for the dishwasher. ATTITUDE has two refill sizes, while Nellie's Dish Cubes handle the machine. If you wash dishes by hand and use a dishwasher, there is an option for both jobs.

Bathroom Cleaning

Bathroom cleaning usually comes down to soap scum, limescale and the toilet.

Personal Care

The shower is an easy place to switch to a Canadian-made product. ATTITUDE has shampoo and body wash, while Rocky Mountain Barber Company's Cedar Spice wash combines hair, face, beard and body care in one bottle.
