Certainty Delivered just got a Toronto address — and for Canadian SMBs, that can mean days off transit times and dollars off every shipment.
In a market where everyone is being asked to do more with less, speed isn’t a nice-to-have. It’s the difference between winning an order and losing it. And the fastest-growing brands aren’t the ones spending the most on marketing — they’re the ones removing distance, cost, and uncertainty from their supply chains. Dual-coast warehousing is one way to achieve that, positioning inventory closer to your customers on both coasts.
That starts with where your inventory sits.
Because in Canada, geography isn’t a detail. It’s the most expensive part of your fulfillment strategy.
See how much you can save by positioning inventory in Ontario. Radius now offers coast-coast warehousing.
When Your Warehouse is Far From Your Customers, You’re Paying for It — Twice
Every extra day in transit hits you from both sides:
• Higher freight costs for long-haul shipments
• Lower conversion rates and repeat purchases
• More customer service volume
• More exceptions, delays, and refunds
For SMBs shipping only from Western Canada, orders to Ontario, Quebec, and the Maritimes regularly stretch 4–7 business days. Meanwhile, competitors storing inventory in the GTA deliver in 1–3 days at a lower cost.
Slow shipping isn’t a service issue. It’s a margin issue.
Stop paying Eastern Canada premiums. Ask Radius how dual-coast storage reduces cost per order.
Why the GTA Is Now Non-Negotiable for National Shipping
More than 70% of Canada’s population lives within 500 km of Toronto. A warehouse in Ontario instantly unlocks:
• Shorter delivery routes to the majority of the country
• Lower carrier rates and fewer surcharges
• Faster restocking and cash conversion
• Stronger customer satisfaction and review scores
This is why Radius invested in a new 75,000 sq ft Mississauga facility — built for speed, proximity, and national reach.

The Hidden Costs of Slow Fulfillment (That Add Up Fast)
Most organizations underestimate how many budget lines are affected when transit times drag:
• Freight: long-haul shipping raises per-order cost dramatically
• Inventory: slower replenishment forces higher safety stock
• Cash flow: delayed deliveries = delayed revenue recognition
• Ops load: more exceptions mean more support requests
A warehouse location isn’t a real estate decision. It’s a financial one.
The New Standard: A Dual-Coast Canadian Footprint
Canadian SMBs are shifting to East + West storage because dual-coast warehousing delivers all these benefits:
• Faster delivery to 90% of Canadian buyers
• Reduced carrier spend
• Built-in redundancy against delays and backlogs
• Lower pressure during peak seasons
• Better protection against weather-related disruptions
With facilities in Surrey, BC and Mississauga, ON, Radius provides dual-coast warehousing coverage without the capital cost of building it yourself.
