Is there a minimum number of pallets to store with North Industries?

No national-scale minimum is required. North Industries stores anything from a few pallets of overflow to a full recurring program, billed to the space you use. That flexibility is aimed at growing brands and businesses that do not want to commit to pallet floors set by larger providers.

Do you bill by pallet or by square foot?

Both. North Industries can charge by pallet position or by the square foot, depending on how your inventory is stored and moves. The right basis is set with your quote so you pay for the space your product actually uses, not a fixed block.

Is my inventory kept separate, and who insures it?

Your inventory is assigned and organized separately within a controlled-access facility. Clients insure their own goods, while North Industries carries its own business insurance. Your stock is not pooled with other clients' product.

Can I store inventory short-term or seasonally?

Yes. North Industries handles short-term, overflow and seasonal storage as well as long-term programs, with terms set to how long you need the space. This suits seasonal peaks, product launches and one-time project inventory.

Do you deliver stored inventory locally?

Yes. North Industries delivers across the GTA and GTHA on its own final-mile vehicles, so stored inventory can go straight to local customers, retailers or stores without a third-party courier in between.

Pet Care Manufacturing and Fulfillment in Canada

“Pet care manufacturing in Canada at North Industries serves pet grooming brands and pet subscription box companies from one facility at 3186A Lenworth Drive in Mississauga.

Pet Product Co-Packing in Ontario

Pet product co-packing at North Industries turns your bulk formula into finished units ready for pet retail, Amazon and online orders:

Filling: grooming liquids into bottles, pump containers and spray bottles
Closing: caps, pumps and trigger sprayers fitted to each unit
Labelling: front and back labels, stickers and barcodes applied to your artwork

Bottles, closures and labels can come from you, or North Industries can coordinate components for the run. Trial runs and small batches let a new scent, size or coat formula be tested before you commit to volume. Read more about contract bottling and liquid filling at North Industries.

Pet Grooming Products North Industries Co-Packs

North Industries co-packs pet grooming products that make no health or therapeutic claims:

Wash care: pet shampoos and conditioners
Coat care: detangling and coat sprays
Freshening: deodorizing and grooming sprays

Pet shampoo co-packing in Canada works best when the formula is already proven. Brands looking for a pet grooming product manufacturer in Canada that already have their formula can move straight to filling, labelling and packing with North Industries. Read more about contract bottling and liquid filling at North Industries.

Can North Industries fill flea and tick, dental or supplement products?

No. Pet supplements and dental or wellness products can be veterinary health products, and Health Canada requires companies that manufacture, package, label or store them to follow good manufacturing practices under the Natural Health Products Regulations. Products with flea, tick or medical claims fall under separate federal rules. North Industries co-packs grooming products only and does not hold those licences or certifications.

Pet Subscription Boxes and Gift Sets

Pet subscription box companies use North Industries to assemble each cycle in the same building where products are stored:

Monthly boxes: each cycle built to the same agreed specification
Variety packs: grooming bundles for Amazon and online listings
Seasonal sets: holiday and gift collections built to your layout
Inserts: cards, coupons and brand inserts added to every box

Pet subscription box fulfillment in Canada works best when inventory storage and kitting happen under one roof. Brands looking for a pet subscription box kitting partner in Canada can move straight from storage to custom assembly and direct-to-consumer shipping with North Industries. Read more about contract bottling and liquid filling at North Industries.

Can pet subscription boxes include treats?

Yes, as finished, sealed and packaged items. North Industries places packaged treats into boxes alongside grooming products and toys but does not open, portion or repack food. Treat brands are responsible for their own product’s food compliance. Box assembly at North Industries is secondary packaging of products that arrive already sealed.

Pet Care 3PL in Ontario

As a pet care 3PL in Ontario, North Industries stores finished stock by the pallet or square foot in the same building where it was filled or kitted, then ships every channel from that one inventory:

Shopify and DTC: orders connected through Zoho Inventory

Pet retail and wholesale: case packs and palletized replenishment orders
Delivery: company-operated vehicles across the GTA and Southern Ontario, with carriers such as Canada Post, FedEx and UPS coordinated for parcels and longer routes

Pet Care Co-Packing Questions, Answered

Does North Industries make pet food or treats?

No. North Industries does not manufacture pet food or treats, and it does not fill or repack food. Its pet care work covers grooming products such as shampoos, conditioners and sprays, plus box assembly, storage and fulfillment. Pet food brands looking for a manufacturer need a facility built and certified for food production.

What should a pet brand share before co-packing starts?

Share the ingredient list, every claim on the label, any safety data sheet and your sales channels. This lets North Industries confirm the product is a grooming product rather than a regulated health product, and that it suits the facility. With that confirmed, the run can be scoped and quoted accurately.

How is pet product co-packing priced?

Pet product co-packing at North Industries is quoted per project. Filling is priced per filled unit, labelling, kitting and packing per unit, and larger runs can be priced per project. Your quote reflects the product and container, run size, whether you supply components and labels, and whether box assembly, storage and fulfillment are included.

How long does it take to start a pet care co-packing project?

Start dates depend on the product review, your components and the production schedule at the time. North Industries sets a date once scope and materials are confirmed, and runs a trial first when the fill, finish or box layout needs checking. Brands with labels, bottles and box components ready reach their first full run sooner.
