What Timbr Mart does

Timbr Canada (operating under the brand name Timbr Mart in firmographic records) is a Toronto-based custom fabrication and experiential marketing company serving enterprise brands. The firm designs, fabricates, and installs physical brand experiences including pop-ups, event installations, trade show booths, retail fixtures, branded games, and set designs for film and photography. It operates with an in-house production team and a fabrication shop equipped with advanced tools including CNC routing, 3D printing, and laser cutting, supported by carpentry, welding, and electrical capabilities.

The company generates revenue primarily through project-based custom fabrication engagements, complemented by a modular rental solutions line for brands seeking high-end temporary setups without long-term commitment. Pricing is scope-based for bespoke projects and unit-based (with a downloadable catalog) for rentals. Its go-to-market is direct-to-enterprise, with engagement sourced through its website, social media channels (Instagram, LinkedIn, TikTok), and co-development partnerships with creative agencies including Adept, Mint Agency, Swamp, and Spirit of York. The client base spans technology (Google, Pinterest), e-commerce (Shopify), athletic apparel (Lululemon), beverage (Evian, Absolut), skincare (Neutrogena), entertainment (Amazon Studios), spirits (Gooderham & Worts), hospitality (Westin Harbour Castle), sunscreen (Hawaiian Tropic), and sports (Toronto Tempo).

The business is privately held and family-influenced, with multiple Kinnear family members across the team roster. It operates primarily in the Toronto, Ontario region with a team of approximately 13 named members. Note: there is a discrepancy in the input data between the firmographic header (which describes a Calgary-based member-owned buying group founded in 1967) and the detailed operational data (which describes a Toronto-based experiential fabrication firm with a Kinnear family team). The operating reality reflected in customer logos, partnerships, website content, and team profiles corresponds to Timbr Canada, the Toronto fabrication business.
