Brimich Logistics & Packaging

What Brimich Logistics & Packaging does

Brimich Logistics & Packaging is a family-operated third-party logistics (3PL) provider headquartered in Brantford, Ontario, founded in 1997 (with corporate filings referencing 1996) and operating across approximately 1.9 million square feet of multi-temperature, food-grade warehouse space in seven facilities supported by an asset-based fleet of 50 trucks and over 100 trailers. The company offers integrated warehousing (frozen, chilled, temp-controlled, and ambient storage), transportation (TL, LTL, cross-border Canada–USA, reefer and dry freight), and value-added services (pick and pack, cross-docking, co-packing, rework, reverse logistics, container de-stuffing, labeling, corrugated supply, and e-commerce drop shipping). Its technology layer centers on a Provision-branded Warehouse Management System with user-configurable business logic, EDI integration (standard and customized), satellite fleet tracking, and a customer-facing portal for online inventory management and management reporting.

The business model is B2B enterprise sales-led, with a direct-to-consumer layer for portal users, targeting food and beverage, consumer packaged goods, retail and wholesale, and manufacturing customers. Revenue is generated through managed-services contracts for warehousing and transportation, supplemented by professional-services fees for value-added work and non-asset brokerage through a partner carrier network covering the Continental United States. Brimich holds a dense regulatory and certification stack, including SQF Select, HACCP, CFIA, FDA, ISO, CTPAT, and SmartWay Transport Partner status, and was named one of North America's first SQF Select sites. In September 2023, TorQuest Partners completed a private equity investment aimed at Southern Ontario expansion while preserving existing family leadership; no revenue figures are publicly disclosed.
