What Consolidated Fastfrate does

Consolidated Fastfrate Inc. is a privately held Canadian freight transportation and integrated supply-chain services company headquartered in Woodbridge (Toronto), Ontario, owned by Tepper Holdings Inc. and led by CEO Manny Caladrino with Ron Tepper as Chairman. Founded in 1966 by Donald Freeman and Sophie Weimert, the company operates a coast-to-coast Canadian network of 11 terminals, 1.2 million+ square feet of facilities, 6,000+ pieces of equipment, 400 owned 53-foot rail containers (dry and heated), and 1,500 GPS-tracked trucks, with more than 3,300 employees and owner-operators. The service portfolio spans less-than-truckload (LTL) road and intermodal, full truckload (FTL) and FTL intermodal, drayage and transloading, final-mile delivery, and warehousing and fulfillment, marketed under the Fastfrate brand and through wholly-owned subsidiaries ASL Distribution Services (warehousing), Challenger Motor Freight (FTL/cross-border), Canada Drayage Inc. (CDI; drayage, founded 1994), Precision Parcel & Package Deliveries (final mile), and Omnitrans Inc. (international freight forwarding and customs brokerage, acquired February 2026).

The operating model is built around a 60-plus-year strategic partnership with Canadian Pacific Kansas City (CPKC), through which more than 60% of freight moves via intermodal rail, complemented by over-the-road capacity. Internal technology includes a proprietary transportation management system with real-time tracking, EDI and API connectivity into customer ERP, WMS, and eCommerce platforms, barcode scanning, dock-visibility systems, handheld driver devices, GPS telematics across the 1,500-truck fleet, and customer-facing digital tools for quoting, pickup requests, and shipment documentation. The company markets its services across ten verticals including retail, home improvement, construction products, tools and industrial, paper and forest products, plastics, tile and stone, electrical, railway, and consumer goods, serving named enterprise customers such as Canadian Tire (30+ years), London Drugs (40+ years), Home Hardware (since 1990), Stanley Black & Decker, Tremco, Domtar, Regency Plastics, Anixter, Anatolia Tile & Stone, and Balcan Plastics.

Revenue is generated primarily through transaction-based freight transportation fees across LTL, intermodal, FTL, drayage, final mile, and warehousing service lines, with quote-based pricing that is not publicly disclosed and multi-year contracts that are typical with enterprise shippers. Go-to-market is sales-led through dedicated account executives and enterprise sales support, with online quote intake and a partner login portal for existing customers. The company is privately held under Tepper Holdings Inc., with no external institutional investment, public-market listing, or venture funding disclosed in the input data.
