📔 Small Business Resource: Avoid Tariffs with CUSMA
Last week, we ran a free webinar on how qualifying made-in-Canada brands can navigate shipping duty-free to the US, now that policies are changing. We had 90 registrants and 10+ new brands sign up from this lively call! For those who missed it, you can find our blog on this topic here.
🇨🇦 Fresh Faces
A warm welcome to these homegrown brands we've welcomed this week: jewellery edition.
telostia
Ethically sourced diamonds are having a moment, thanks to Taylor and Travis (congrats to our favourite parasocial couple!).
New brand, telostia, incorporates raw gemstones into their locally made jewellery to create the most precious, delicate adornments.
The Loved One
The Loved One creates exquisite accessories and bridal apparel, made by hand in Toronto Canada by founder Antonia Akai-Casuccio or members of her small team. Our pieces are designed to be worn and cherished long after a trip down the aisle. At all times, materials are sourced from reputable suppliers, typically female or family-owned.
Moondrop Creations
In a world of polished and predictable jewelry, Moondrop Creations embraces imperfection - crafting unique jewelry with raw, uncut diamonds and gemstones. Each piece whispers Earth’s history and mystery, reminding us that true beauty is not refined, but revealed.
