No Name (stylized as no name®) is a prominent generic line of grocery and household products sold in Canada. Launched in 1978, the brand was a pioneer in the 'no-frills' retail concept, intended to provide consumers with basic quality products at lower prices by utilizing simple yellow and black packaging and minimal advertising.

While the brand is deeply rooted in Canadian retail history, its products are sourced globally. Canned tropical fruits like pineapple are typically manufactured in Southeast Asian nations such as Thailand, the Philippines, or Indonesia, depending on seasonal availability and supply chain logistics, then imported for distribution across Canada.

The brand is owned by Loblaw Companies Limited, Canada's largest food retailer. Since its inception, No Name has expanded from a small selection of 16 items to over 2,900 products, becoming a cultural icon in Canada known for its literal product descriptions and satirical marketing.
