nixit Brings Vagina-friendly Condoms™ and Organic Lubricant to Select Loblaw Grocery Stores Nationwide
PRESS RELEASE — NEWS PROVIDED BY Ellyssa Gandhi for nixit
TORONTO, ON (MAY 2026) – Leading Canadian personal care brand nixit is bringing its vagina-friendly condoms™ and organic, water-based lubricant to select Loblaw Companies Limited banners nationwide. As 72 percent of Canadian consumers prioritize organic ingredients in personal care¹, expectations are shifting, and nixit is meeting that demand with cleaner, ingredient-conscious options on shelves where Canadians already shop.
This marks the brand’s first expansion into mass grocery in Canada, growing its Canadian retail footprint by 52 per cent. Founded and self-funded by Rachael Newton, nixit has grown internationally through its direct-to-consumer channel since 2019. The launch spans 384 store locations across select Loblaw banners, including Loblaws, Real Canadian Superstore, Zehrs, and Your Independent Grocer.
“Being available in select Loblaw stores nationwide will allow more Canadians to access high-quality, thoughtfully created sexual wellness products within their everyday routines,” said Rachael Newton, nixit founder. “Better options shouldn’t be inconvenient and comfort shouldn’t be optional.”
nixit’s vagina-friendly condoms™ and water-based lubricant were developed to address long-standing gaps in the category, where performance is often prioritized over comfort. Designed to support the vaginal environment, nixit’s products are intentionally made without common irritants such as fragrances, glycerin, spermicides, casein, and warming agents.
“Canadian shoppers are paying closer attention than ever to what’s in the products they use, and that conversation is now extending into sexual wellness. nixit’s focus on ingredient transparency and women’s health makes them a strong addition to our growing assortment in the health and personal care space,” said Elaine Lukowski, VP, Home, Entertainment & Health and Beauty, Loblaw Companies Limited.
