Metro Supply Chain Inc., a leading Canadian contract logistics provider, has announced the integration of SCI into its operations. The strategic move aims to bolster the company’s position in the global supply chain solutions market.
“We’re leveraging our shared customer-first approach and culture of innovation to generate growth for our clients,” said Chris Fenton, President and CEO of Metro Supply Chain. The integration, set to complete this fall, will bring SCI’s capabilities under the Metro Supply Chain banner.
Metro Supply Chain Integration Expands Service Portfolio
The acquisition of SCI marks Metro Supply Chain’s 12th business acquisition in less than a decade. This integration adds critical sectors such as technology and healthcare to Metro Supply Chain’s service offerings. It also reinforces the company’s e-commerce fulfillment capabilities in Canada.
The unified entity significantly scales Metro Supply Chain’s White Glove delivery services. Currently, the company leads in last-mile logistics for big and bulky goods in Canada. SCI brings expertise in White Glove business-to-business services, including delivery and installation of specialized equipment.
Enhances Cross-Border Operations
Together, the companies offer seamless, omni-channel e-commerce fulfillment to North American businesses. Their cross-border services include setting up U.S. e-commerce fulfillment directly from Canada. This approach leverages US Section 321 to reduce import costs for clients.
Metro Supply Chain now operates from over 175 locations internationally. The company’s innovative solutions are backed by in-house engineering experts and investments in advanced technology.
As Canada’s largest privately owned supply chain solutions company, Metro Supply Chain manages 19 million square feet of space. With a team of 9,000 across North America, the UK, and Europe, the company continues to excel in meeting complex distribution needs.
Metro Supply Chain’s commitment to innovation and customer service has earned it recognition. The company ranks as a top-performing supplier and was named one of Canada’s Best Managed Companies in 2024.
