Our Story
Indigenous Box started late one night, back in March of 2021. Just for a moment, my husband and I decided to ignore our usual self-limiting thoughts and dream HUGE. Whispering by lamp light, ever so quietly, so we didn't wake the kids, we wrote the mission statement for a different kind of company.
We had this idea: what if we did business with an abundance mindset, where there was room for everyone? What if we worked with our suppliers to help them grow while we grow? Then we could all succeed together!
And just think of all the kids who would be watching and learning. We would bring Indigenous goods to market with love, good intentions, and great care, while helping Indigenous entrepreneurs grow.
We didn’t know anything about how to build a company but we told ourselves that everything is figureoutable and just started anyway.
And you know what? Our theory was right. Thanks to our amazing customers, we’ve served over 600 organizations and thousands of individuals across North America and beyond. You've made us Canada's go-to for social-impact gifting, and helped us move a lot of Indigenous goods!
