PRIMED Moves to New Warehouse Partner in Alberta
EDMONTON,Alberta – PRIMED Medical Products, an Edmonton-based PPE manufacturing company, has recently relocated its Western Canadian warehousing operations to Alberta, creating job opportunities and boosting economic growth in the region.
In response to the growing demand for PPE, PRIMED made the strategic decision to partner with Groupe Robert, an industry leader in warehousing and logistics operations. This move has allowed PRIMED to increase storage capacity and streamline operations, enabling to meet the needs of their customers more efficiently. The partnership has also allowed the company to take advantage of the strategic location of the warehouse, giving it better access to the markets it serves.
“We chose to partner with Groupe Robert because of their track records in service levels, technology best practices with ERP warehouse management systems and their total supply chain logistics and process capabilities,” says Dean Evans, Director of Canadian Operations at PRIMED. “Groupe Robert is known throughout Quebec and Ontario with operations also in Alberta.”
One of the most significant benefits of PRIMED's move to an Alberta warehouse partner is the employment opportunities it has created. Several part-time and full-time jobs were created based on the additional business PRIMED has brought to Alberta.
“By keeping our warehouse and logistics provider local, we’re able to improve the customer experience increase efficiencies and provide employment opportunities in our home province, all important elements of being an Alberta based company”, comments David Welsh, PRIMED’s CEO and President.
