Description

Support Canadian Businesses! "Shop Canadian" is a simple and fast way to get product information by scanning barcodes.

Our app makes it easy to support Canadian businesses by allowing you instant access to the company and location info on consumer products. With just a tap, you might be able to discover whether a product is locally made, further enabling your buying choice.

It is our hope to prioritize Canadian brands and manufacturers in such a way that is convenient, and easy.

Made by two proudly Canadian Software Developers from Edmonton, Alberta.

Great idea, needs time to fill out

I love the idea and its simplicity is great too. But I think it could use a little more information and nuance when it comes to how Canadian a product is, which can be a kind of complicated question. But I think all of that will come with time, and I think it’s great start to an app with lots of potential.

Developer Response ,

Thank you for your patience as we continue to improve. Our goal is to make this app the best it can be for our users.

As a community-driven platform, users can contribute by adding products to the directory and providing ratings, helping to establish an accurate Canadian average score.

We truly appreciate your kind review!

A step up

This barcode country origin app is a step up from the rest I’ve tried — because it references the company distributing the product rather than the company issuing the barcode to that distributor like most other such apps.

Rather than a subjective 1-5 star user-reporting scale for “how Canadian”, I suggest using actual info from product labelling: 1 (Product of Canada), 2 (Made in Canada), 3 (imported by / made for / etc)

Hello,

Thank you for your fantastic suggestion!

In our recent update, we’ve implemented the rating system you recommended. We're working on refining this system, including specifics like distinguishing between products made in Canada (5 stars) and those with components from other countries but assembled in Canada (3 stars).

We appreciate your feedback and hope you continue using the app

Go Canada!

I like this app. While a bit clunky, it is improving. I love that as users we can add to the database. This will be a powerful tool over time.

One suggestion: I’d like to see a NO maple leaf option. Non-Canadian products don’t deserve a maple leaf.

Great work. Thanks for putting it out there.

Hi Eric,

You're absolutely right about the maple leaf suggestion! We truly appreciate your feedback and are considering it for future updates—stay tuned.

Thank you for your kind review!
