ITR Canada Distribution Inc.

What ITR Canada Distribution Inc. does

ITR Canada Distribution Inc. is a private Canadian company founded in 2006 that manufactures and distributes aftermarket parts for heavy equipment. It is a subsidiary of ITR North America, which itself operates within the Italian USCO Group, and was established in its current form in 2008 through a joint venture with Heavyquip. The company serves wholesale dealers, equipment repair facilities, and original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) across North America.

The company offers more than 80,000 OEM replacement parts across 50,000+ line items, with approximately 3,500 new parts added each year. Its product portfolio spans undercarriage components, rubber tracks, ground engaging tools (GET), paver parts, powertrain and hydraulics, engine components, hardware, and general repair items. ITR Canada Distribution operates 11 distribution centers across North America and produces more than 60,000 gear pumps annually in-house, supported by eight hydraulic pump test stands used for quality verification. The company holds ISO 9001, ISO 14001, and ISO TS16949 certifications, covering quality management, environmental management, and automotive industry quality standards respectively.

Its business model is wholesale distribution of aftermarket heavy equipment parts, augmented by selected in-house manufacturing (gear pumps, OEM track frames). Growth has been pursued through acquisitions, including BYG Canada in 2016 and Bulldog Hydraulics in 2018, and through the 2019 launch of ITR Solutions, a dedicated OEM track frame division housed in a 90,000-square-foot facility. An 11th distribution center was opened in Valley City, Ohio in 2020. Revenue is generated by selling catalog parts and manufactured components to a distributed base of dealers, repair shops, and OEM accounts across North America.
