TORONTO, Canada – Livingston International, a leading North American provider of customs brokerage and trade compliance services, is pleased to announce that it has been chosen as Staples Canada Inc.’s Supply Chain Vendor of the Year for 2013.
Livingston has worked closely with Staples since its entry into the Canadian market in 2000, offering customs brokerage, international freight forwarding and trade consulting services. Staples makes it easy to make more happen with more products and more ways to shop through its world-class retail, online and delivery capabilities.
“Our team works with Staples to eliminate any trade barriers that may impact the company’s ability to maintain their inventories,” said Wendy Archambault, Livingston’s vice president of Canadian operations. “The retail sector is highly time-sensitive, and delays at the border can result in products not getting to market which ultimately can impact our client’s bottom line.”
“Livingston prides itself in maintaining a strong collaborative working relationship with our clients, and listening to clients and understanding their needs is critical in building that partnership,” added Ms. Archambault. “This award is especially important, as it helps validate to our employees that going above and beyond is what separates us from many of our competitors.”
