Container drayage, once seen as a tactical handoff between ocean and inland freight, is now a strategic touchpoint. Ports in Vancouver, Montreal and Halifax are transforming into digitally managed zones, where AI systems optimize yard flows and real-time tracking eliminates costly bottlenecks. Electric drayage trucks are gaining traction in urban corridors, supported by government incentives and carbon compliance targets. Powering this shift behind the scenes is a new generation of cloud-based Transportation Management Systems. These platforms aren't just replacing manual dispatch boards; they're becoming the operational brain of supply chains. By automating everything from carrier selection and rate negotiation to dynamic routing and compliance audits, modern TMS platforms enable logistics teams to act in real time, not in hindsight. Integrated with warehouse systems, customs portals, and even predictive weather data, they bring a level of coordination that was once out of reach.Driven by these trends, the Logistics and Transportation market is projected to reach approximately 139.2 billion USD by 2030, growing at a compound annual growth rate of 4.50 percent.This Logistics and Transportation Review Canada brings thought leadership articles from Keefer Gibson, Sourcing Manager in Supply Chain at Bimbo Canada, who emphasizes the need for innovation, collaboration and cost-efficiency as the cold storage industry faces limited capacity, changing booking models and rising costs to ensure long-term resilience. Additionally, Gord Campbell, Vice President, Retail Operations & Supply Chain at Lee Valley Tools, highlights how Lee Valley Tools is automating warehouse operations to tackle labor shortages, boost e-commerce capacity and adapt to a shifting retail landscape.This edition features the Top Container Drayage Services in Canada 2025, Cloud-Based TMS Automation Platform 2025 and Supply Chain Company of the year in Canada 2025, we hope you find the right partner to meet your organization's needs.
