The Legacy.
For more than a century, we’ve transported millions of pounds of product and transformed stacks of shopper data into strategic in-store solutions. In the process, we’ve fulfilled even the tallest of customer orders, while delivering the highest standards of service.
More than a century strong. Delivering from the start.
Delivering Success
We’re not just tooting our own horn. Some of our most recent successes are the result of our work with widely recognized names and brands.
We have rapidly added new doors with Sodastream across Canada, in some of the country’s largest retailers: Loblaws, Metro, Sobeys, Save-On-Foods, Jean Coutu, and Shoppers Drug Mart to name a few. Similarly, with craft beer makers, we have experienced rapid logistic service growth in Ontario and Atlantic Canada.
And, while we’re excited about our successes, we remain humble and never lose sight of our roots and our values.
Grounded in our history
Long before the internet or modern technology, two young Canadians — E.H. O’Brien and H.H. Marshall — began delivering newspapers to support their families. They weren’t ordinary paperboys; they were entrepreneurs who went on to build respective distribution and delivery businesses in Ontario and Atlantic Canada.
In 1969, our business, then known as TNG, joined the Jim Pattison Group, growing into a national wholesale distribution and merchandising operation. Later, we became part of the accelerate360 family, a U.S.-based wholesale distributor of magazines and general merchandise products.
Now Part of Postmedia
accelerate360 Canada has entered a new chapter as part of Postmedia, a prominent Canadian media and logistics organization. This connects our business to a national network with the scale and resources to further support our growth across the country.
Moving Ahead
Well into our second century in the industry, we continue to expand via strategic partnerships and acquisitions. We’re always interested in speaking with companies that have a diversified supplier and customer base, much like our own. If you own, operate, or work for a business that seems suitable for our brand, we’d love to hear from you.
