Webber Naturals demonstrates high domestic economic retention due to its Canadian private ownership and significant manufacturing footprint in British Columbia. While the entity utilizes domestic farming for some ingredients, the global nature of the supplement supply chain results in a mixed input profile, contributing to its final True North score.

True North: 40/100

Rexall maintains a substantial physical and operational presence within Canada, contributing significantly to domestic employment. However, its True North score is impacted by its status as a subsidiary of a US-based multinational, meaning ultimate capital retention and strategic control reside outside of Canada. The company functions as a key domestic service provider under foreign ownership.
