Canadian-owned and operated since 1996.
We've been running supply chains for some of Canada's most demanding organizations and international clients for over thirty years. Our clients get a team that delivers on its commitments and stays invested in their operation long after the contract is signed.
Built by operators, for the Canadian market
Hopewell Logistics was founded in 1996 with a specific idea: locate otherwise competitive CPG companies on a shared campus to unlock operational savings and shared best practices in safety and continuous improvement. It was the first campus of its kind in Canada. Working alongside our sister company Hopewell Development, we designed and built our Brampton campus — a project that very few organizations in this industry could have undertaken. We opened that campus in 1998, launched Western Canada freight operations in 1997, and added yard and shuttle management in 2014. In 2005 we opened our Calgary campus. Today we manage over four million square feet across the country, employ over a thousand people, and run supply chains for some of Canada’s best-known brands.
The Hopewell Way
We operate on a simple principle: the relationship a client has with us on day one should look the same on day three hundred. We bring problems to the table before clients find them. We bring continuous improvement ideas without being asked. We stay in front of issues and bring solutions to the table at the same time. Our clients get full visibility into costs and performance. That standard hasn’t changed since 1996.
A National Footprint to Empower Your Supply Chain
We started in Ontario and built west. Today we operate distribution campuses in Brampton and Calgary, run freight programs coast to coast, and manage yard operations across our national network. We’re actively growing our capabilities and client base in pharma, retail and apparel, and cosmetics — and the operational depth we’ve developed in CPG travels with us into every new category.
Great work starts with a great culture.
Collaborative
We work closely with our clients. We're present, accessible, and genuinely invested in what they're trying to accomplish. Good work happens when both sides of the table are pulling in the same direction.
Resourceful
When a problem doesn't fit a standard solution, we bring our expertise to bear and find a way. Over thirty years in this market has given us a lot of tools. We know how to use them.
Transparent
Our pricing shows exactly what things cost and why. Our reporting shows the full picture. When something needs to be said, we say it early and directly.
Accountable
Our people take ownership. That shows up in how problems get handled, how clients get communicated with, and the length of our relationships with our clients.
