Overview
FedEx Canada is widely recognized as a trusted shipping provider, dedicated to delivering packages of all sizes promptly and efficiently. With an extensive network of over 500 locations across the country, FedEx Canada not only ensures timely delivery but also offers a variety of value-added tools designed to enhance the shipping experience. These tools help customers streamline their shipping processes, ultimately saving both time and money.
Project
FedEx Ground expanded its operations by moving into a state-of-the-art 250,000 square foot distribution facility located at 365 black diamond boulevard in Winnipeg, Manitoba. This strategically positioned facility is specifically designed to manage critical, time-sensitive packages transported by over-the-road semi-trailer trucks. The collaboration between SI Alarms and the project’s electrical engineer and wholesaler was instrumental in the successful design and installation of the fire alarm system, with Maple Armor products emerging as the optimal solution for this significant project.
