ABOUT US
Making “Strydes”
Stryder’s origins go back to 1989 when we opened as a boutique JIT (Just-in-Time) delivery service in Greater Vancouver for our sole customer with six trucks and eighteen trailers.
By 2005, we had formed a solid vision of a consolidated service platform for our growing group of customers, in addition to achieving consistent on-time performance, year after year. Over the next decade, this vision was refined by bringing together the Transportation, Warehousing and Distribution of production materials for a number of Canadian beverage clients.
With proof of execution that streamlines procurement and production planning to never-before-seen levels, Stryder has grown to become one of the largest asset-based logistics providers in Western Canada and the Pacific Northwestern USA. Today, we are the vital link between suppliers and every major bottler in the region.

What Do We Believe In?
Our corporate philosophy is a simple one: “Teamwork from all avenues generates efficiencies at all levels.” It is the foundation of our workplace environment, and guides us when establishing protocols and business practices.
As the immediate expectation and continuing goal, our philosophy provides the individuals at Stryder with a clear directive, whether they are working with our valued partners, or each other. It also plainly states our policy of mutual respect and intolerance towards discrimination in any form.
Our culture is collaborative, communicative, and reflects personal responsibility in the workplace – again – at all levels. Individual perspectives matter, as they lead to broader efficiencies. This is evidenced in our people, award-winning services, and the long-standing recognition of business partners, clients & communities in which we serve.
