History
Founded in 1986 by Daniel Hudon, LL.B, create the company as a same-day delivery service for businesses.
In 2000, Canada Post buys 50% of Intelcom Express’ shares.[1] The process was controversial, as the company had ties to the Liberal Party of Canada. Critics questioned the fairness of the decision-making process at Canada Post.[2] These shares were repurchased by Intelcom Express in 2007.[3]
In 2012, Intelcom Express enters 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.[citation needed]
In 2014, Intelcom Express develops a business relationship with Outerwall for its coin-cashing machines. [citation needed]
In 2015, Jean-Sébastien Joly becomes the new CEO of Intelcom Express[4][5]. The company secures an investment from the Business Development Bank of Canada[6][7] and the Caisse de dépôt et placement du Québec.
In late 2017, the company faced criticism for their practice of delivering packages in unsafe areas, leading to package theft. Radio-Canada's consumer program, La Facture, broadcasted a segment on Intelcom Express delivery practices in November 2017.[8][9] The following month, Radio Canada International wrote about Christmas gift thieves and featured Intelcom Express delivery problems in condominums.[10]
