WizKids operates as a foreign-owned manufacturer with an ownership and control structure rooted in the United States. Due to the lack of domestic production facilities and local capital retention, the True North score reflects a high level of cross-border value flow. Economic retention within Canada is limited to third-party distribution and retail activity not captured in the manufacturer profile.
