About bare bum™ bare bum™ by Bare Brands Inc. is a premium, eco-conscious baby care brand launching in Canada in 2026, with plans for expansion into the United States and Europe. Our mission is to redefine baby hygiene through cleaner, more thoughtful products that prioritize both human and environmental health. Our flagship innovation combines a microbiome-supportive, prebiotic-infused cleansing spray with plant-derived dry wipes and reusable cloth wipes - a cleaner, more sophisticated alternative to traditional wet wipes. bare bum™ sits at the intersection of several high-growth consumer trends: premium baby care, clean beauty, eco-conscious innovation, and microbiome-focused wellness. This is a rare opportunity to help build a category-defining brand from the ground up.
