Refrigerated or Dry

We are proud to play an essential role in the food industry. We specialize in reefer container export for meat and produce. You are able to trust us to keep your freight heated, dry, cold, or frozen with our tracking technology, which gives us the ability to ensure the goods are at the correct temperature during transport. The key to moving fresh freight is understanding that perishable goods require an extra level of care, which our team has been providing for years.

Leading the way to a sustainable future: Introducing our new battery electric trucks

We recently completed the purchase of two new battery electric trucks (BETs) to spearhead the electrification of our local Vancouver-area fleet, already serving customers through our local drayage operations.

Our vision is to shift our fleet to BETs to meet our commitment to reducing our carbon footprint, improve operational efficiency, and lead the charge in implementing green transportation.

Why Electrification is Important for our customers

The electrification of our fleet is not just a company initiative; it's a step towards redefining the transportation industry in the region and beyond. We’re excited to take a leadership role in reducing emissions. This aligns with the increasing demand from customers and communities for environmentally responsible practices. Electric trucks also provide a more stable cost structure due to lower fuel and maintenance costs. This economic advantage helps businesses better manage their finances amidst fluctuating fuel prices and evolving regulations.
