“In 1984, Rodney Benson and Jeremy Braude purchased Danica Imports, and in 2004 acquired Now Designs.”
This score is our own read of publicly available evidence, not a regulatory finding. It is not a CFIA or Competition Bureau origin determination, and it is not the same as the "Product of Canada" or "Made in Canada" claims a manufacturer prints on a label.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the Bee Garden stacking mug made in Canada?
No. This stacking cup is printed for the Vancouver studio. The clay is fired abroad.
Does the Bee Garden mug stack?
Yes. Now Designs sells it as a stacking mug, 4 inches across and 3.5 inches tall, so the cups nest in a cupboard.
How much does the Bee Garden mug hold?
16 oz. That is smaller than Danica's 22 oz fluted mug and larger than a typical espresso cup.
What is printed on it?
Bees among wildflowers. Now Designs describes the Bee Garden art as folk art, with symmetry meant to echo pollinators and plants.
Who sells the Bee Garden mug?
Danica's own site is wholesale only. The brand says Now Designs is sold at retail across Canada and the US, and also on Danica Studio and Ecologie sites.
