TO PUT IT IN PERSPECTIVE FROM THE VERY BEGINNING,
W E A R E P R O U D .
In 2006 we started a little stone company and made the conscious decision to keep our base in our native country of Canada, work with our neighbors in the U.S., but establish the heart of our company in our family heritage country, India. We did so, knowing that we could make a difference there. We could celebrate a distinguished culture, while providing safe work conditions, fair wages, and equality. We have been doing that since 2004 and do you know what’s happened? We have multi-generations of families working with us. We watch our new employees flourish in their jobs and then afford to buy their first homes. We watch positive co-worker relationships being made, no matter the age or gender, and pride of workmanship from the floor sweepers we depend on to keep our work areas clean, to engineers perfecting our process.
WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO BE CANADIAN OWNED AND MANUFACTURED IN INDIA?
This is often an unspoken curiosity. Let us tell you. It means we are passionate about breaking down barriers and paving a new path. It means we have a critical opportunity to run an ethical company with living wages and safe work conditions. It means we have the same employees and families teaming with us for 20 years because we believe in leading the charge of good and fair. It also means we can be the change we want to see around the world. We can build schools where there are none. We can take in stray animals and provide shelter when that is outside the norm. We can help families impact future generations so that they may join us in being the change.
