Your business goals for the year are set—but how are you planning for long-term success in an unpredictable economy? With new tariffs and global supply chain disruptions, now is the time to think locally. Choosing Canadian suppliers isn’t just about national pride—it’s a smart, future-proof strategy that keeps costs stable, ensures reliable supply, and strengthens the economy we all depend on.
The Overlooked Essential: Period Care
One simple but powerful way to support Canadian suppliers? Offering free period care in workplaces and public spaces.
Menstrual care isn’t a luxury—it’s an essential. Whether you’re an employer, facility manager, or business owner, providing access to high-quality period care supports employees, customers, and guests while also contributing to a stronger, more sustainable Canadian economy.
Why Free Period Care Makes Sense for Business
If you manage a facility, workplace, or public space, you already know that seamless operations and positive experiences matter. Free period care may not be the first thing on your radar, but here’s why it should be:
🔹 Reduce workplace disruptions – When people can’t access period care, they leave to find supplies, leading to lost productivity and frustration. Keeping products stocked keeps people on-site and engaged.
🔹 Improve operational efficiency – Traditional dispensers are outdated, often requiring exact change or sitting empty for weeks. Modern solutions—like joni’s Canadian-made, free-vend dispensers—eliminate these issues. And if you’re a federally regulated employer, this is now a requirement under the Canadian Labour Code.
🔹 Enhance customer and employee experience – Whether it’s an office, retail space, gym, or public facility, offering free period care shows you care—boosting satisfaction, retention, and brand reputation.
Why Canadian Suppliers Are the Smarter Choice
Beyond the benefits of providing free period care, where you source these products matters. With rising tariffs and ongoing global supply chain disruptions, working with a Canadian supplier offers key advantages:
🍁 Reliable Supply Chains – Avoid delays, shortages, and fluctuating costs tied to cross-border shipping. Canadian-made products ensure consistency and availability.
🍁 Cost Stability – Fluctuating import fees and tariffs make budgeting unpredictable. Choosing Canadian suppliers means fewer financial surprises.
🍁 Sustainability & Compliance – Canadian manufacturers adhere to high environmental and ethical standards, helping businesses meet ESG goals with confidence.
🍁 Local Economic Impact – Supporting Canadian businesses fuels job creation, drives innovation, and strengthens the economy we all rely on.
