Intelcom Express is a Canadian courier company headquartered in Montreal, Quebec. The company is also known as Intelcom Courier Canada inc.
History
Founded in 1986 by Daniel Hudon, LL.B, the company was created as a same-day delivery service for businesses. The company continued its organic growth by buying several courier companies in the Montreal area.
In 2000, with the exponential growth of e-commerce and the slow-down of traditional mailing, Canada Post buys 50% of Intelcom Express’ shares[1] to grow its same-day delivery operations and offer a complete shipping solution. Intelcom Express uses the opportunity to widen its services across Canada.
In 2002, a large shipping company partners with Intelcom Express to deliver to remote areas. This partnership helps Intelcom Express grow into new territories across Canada:
- 2004 – Calgary
- 2006 – Northern British Columbia
- 2012 – Northern Alberta
- 2013 – Edmonton + 200 other cities in Alberta
- 2014 – British Columbia + 150 other cities
In 2007, Intelcom Express repurchases the shares from Canada Post to continue its growth.[2]
In 2012, Intelcom Express entered the pharmaceutical delivery business with the purchase of Le Livreur Plus inc. and Eco Plus inc. services for the province of Quebec. Intelcom Express now works with Jean Coutu, Pharmaprix, Brunet, Familiprix, Uniprix, and many other independent pharmacies in home-delivering prescription drugs to customers. This new market segment opens the door to new potential clients in the e-commerce business.
In 2014, Intelcom Express develops a business relationship with Outerwall for its coin-cashing machines. With specialized heavy trucks, Intelcom Express empties the machine and transport the coins to a safe warehouse. From 2014 to 2015, the network expanded from multiple cities in Canada to the states of Oklahoma and Alabama.
In 2017, Jean-Sébastien Joly becomes the new CEO of Intelcom Express. With this change of partners, the company secures an investment from the Business Development Bank of Canada[3] and the Caisse de dépôt et placement du Québec.
