Our Mission: Building a Stronger Canadian CPG Ecosystem Together

Every great Canadian product starts with a visionary entrepreneur who dares to innovate. At eQuo, we're championing these bold thinkers by creating Canada's most supportive CPG ecosystem. We understand that building a successful CPG company requires more than just a great product – it needs a community of expertise, resources, and shared determination.

When Canadian CPG companies thrive, they create ripple effects that benefit entire communities – from local suppliers and manufacturers to retailers and consumers.

Together, we're not just supporting businesses; we're nurturing innovations that put more Canadian products within arm's reach of every Canadian. Because when we help one entrepreneur succeed, we strengthen the entire Canadian CPG ecosystem. That's how we're building a more resilient, innovative, and prosperous future for Canadian consumer goods – one success story at a time.
