NORTH VANCOUVER — On Mar. 8, Terry Beech, Minister of Citizens’ Services and Member of Parliament for Burnaby North, announced $200,000 in PacifiCan funding for Satya Organic.
Founded by Patrice Mousseau, an Anishinaabe member of the Fort William First Nation, Satya Organic’s products were initially developed in Patrice’s kitchen as a skincare solution for her baby. Since then, the business has grown significantly and products are now available in thousands of stores across Canada, the US, and Hong Kong.
Satya Organic’s skincare products are made with plant-based ingredients that help address a range of skin conditions, including eczema. The company is committed to sustainability – being petroleum and mineral-oil free, and carbon and plastic neutral. Additionally, Satya products are all refillable, which helps reduce waste. With significant growth already achieved, Satya Organic is gearing up for an expansion in its manufacturing and marketing capacity.
With PacifiCan’s investment through the Business Scale-up and Productivity program, Satya Organic will create new jobs, and increase revenue and export growth.
“At PacifiCan, we are boosting entrepreneurs, including businesses led by women and Indigenous innovators, to help them thrive even more. Satya Organic is proof that great ideas that start at home can grow into local companies selling internationally. Today’s announcement demonstrates our commitment to helping innovative B.C.-based businesses grow and showcase their homegrown products both at home and abroad,” said Harjit S. Sajjan, Minister of Emergency Preparedness and Minister responsible for the Pacific Economic Development Agency of Canada (PacifiCan).
