A major $1 billion investment has culminated in the launch of a state-of-the-art automated distribution center for fresh products in Toronto, marking a significant milestone in transforming Canada’s fresh food supply chain. This newly opened facility, the latest development in a seven-year supply chain modernization project, leverages advanced automation to streamline distribution and enhance product freshness for consumers.
The comprehensive project, which began in 2017, includes the construction of fresh and frozen distribution centers and the expansion of key facilities. The Toronto Fresh distribution center, now fully operational, joins a network of automated facilities that elevate the efficiency and scalability of the supply chain, providing faster delivery to stores while maintaining high product quality.
Incorporating cutting-edge automation from a leading technology partner, this new center embodies the next generation of supply chain management, supporting both operational growth and market responsiveness. “This facility represents a positive step forward in supply chain modernization,” noted a logistics executive. “Through automation, we can deliver fresh products with even greater speed and quality, ensuring an improved experience for our customers.”
This project demonstrates the power of advanced supply chain practices to boost efficiency, sustainability, and reliability, while opening new doors for employees and driving growth across the food distribution industry.
