In a time when ecommerce and omnichannel strategy are not just competitive advantages but survival tools, the question is no longer if retail leaders should evolve — it’s how fast.

Billed as the country’s most senior-level ecommerce and omnichannel conference, eTail Canada has become the go-to forum for industry decision-makers looking to accelerate their digital transformation. And this year’s edition promises to be its most impactful yet.

A Community Built for Leaders

More than just another tradeshow or panel-heavy event, eTail Canada is a curated gathering of 500+ retail and brand professionals, from CEOs and CMOs to Heads of Ecommerce and Digital Marketing. Over two days, participants will dive into high-value content designed specifically for leaders navigating the complexities of modern retail.

What sets eTail apart is its sharp focus on real-world strategies and actionable takeaways. The sessions are led by 65+ senior executives from across the retail spectrum, from fashion, beauty, electronics, lifestyle, and more, sharing not just what’s trending, but what’s working. This isn’t theory. It’s strategy in motion.

Less Hype, More Value

Every year, attendees return to eTail for one reason: value. The agenda doesn’t waste time on buzzwords. Instead, it zeroes in on the practical insights executives need to optimize performance and drive growth.

Topics range from:

  • Personalization at scale using AI and data,

  • Seamless omnichannel fulfilment and supply chain agility,

  • Building brand loyalty through next-gen CX,

  • Attribution, performance marketing, and customer acquisition ROI,

  • And navigating digital disruption in the Canadian market.


These are the topics keeping retail leaders up at night—and eTail Canada delivers answers.

Designed for Meaningful Connections

Unlike massive trade expos where quality connections are lost in the crowd, eTail Canada is designed to foster deep, peer-level networking. Attendees can pre-book one-on-one meetings, join interactive roundtables, and participate in curated networking sessions that go beyond small talk.

In an industry where collaboration is becoming essential, this type of engagement is priceless.

Hotel Rates and Perks

For those traveling from outside Toronto, organizers have secured a preferred rate of ~$359 CAD/night (plus taxes) at the host hotel, the Hyatt Regency Toronto. Staying on-site means you’re never far from the action—and more importantly, the connections that could reshape your strategy.

Sponsorship and Thought Leadership Opportunities

For vendors and solution providers, eTail Canada offers more than booth space—it delivers visibility among real decision-makers. With customizable sponsorship options, executive branding opportunities, and intimate networking formats, the event is designed to help partners build meaningful pipelines.

Why It Matters Now

The Canadian retail market is facing a tipping point. Evolving shopper expectations, rising operational costs, and digital disruption are forcing every brand, regardless of size, to think differently. eTail Canada isn’t just a chance to catch up; it’s a chance to get ahead.

In the words of past attendees:

“eTail Canada is where the industry gets real. No fluff, no noise—just leaders sharing the truth about what it takes to win.”

If you’re serious about reshaping your retail future, then this is where your next chapter begins.
