e-Commerce and multichannel solutions provider GSI Commerce has expanded operations into Canada with the addition of a new fulfillment center located near Toronto and is expected to open in the fourth quarter of 2009. The company has also announced intention to hire new staff for the center which will house fulfillment, customization and potentially customer care services.
“Establishing a physical presence in Canada with our new fulfillment center will enable us to better serve the country’s leading retailers and brands,” said Michael G. Rubin, chairman and CEO of GSI. “We currently support clients with solutions that address the special requirements of this marketplace such as multilingual sites and Canadian currency, including Toys “R” Us (www.toysrus.ca ).”
GSI has also signed the Forzani Group Ltd., national retailer of sporting goods, apparel and footwear in Canada as a new client. This is a seven year agreement between the two companies where GSI will provide Forzani Group with e-commerce technology, order management, fulfillment, and customer care services. Forzani Group has chosen gsi interactivesm, the digital agency of GSI, to provide design services.
