There are many reasons SpaceKap is now recognized as the leading truck box manufacturer in North America. One of them is its extensive distribution network across Canada.
Key Takeaways
- 20% of SpaceKap’s sales come from the rest of Canada outside Quebec, delivered through its distributor network.
- Key partners include Action Car (nationwide), Expertec (Alberta), General Body (Saskatoon), and Intercontinental Truck Body (Lethbridge).
- In Quebec, SpaceKap relies on a dozen distributors alongside its own corporate stores, including Amtech and Solu-Spec.
Why does SpaceKap rely on distributors instead of selling direct everywhere?
These distributors don’t just sell SpaceKap products; they promote the brand, giving the Montreal-based company structured channels to deliver its products and a coast-to-coast presence. As General Manager Étienne Bouchard explains: “These numerous partners ensure our presence and growth across the country. They represent an important lever for increasing our company’s sales, facilitating access to our products, optimizing the supply chain, and strengthening brand awareness. They enable SpaceKap to focus on its core business while benefiting from efficient and extensive distribution.”
How do distributors actually speed up delivery and service?
Distributors contact customers directly and can ensure quality service, advice, and personalized follow-up. Their presence also keeps SpaceKap’s service bodies for trucks available in line with demand and helps manage the flow of goods, reducing delivery times. That means end customers get their hands on products faster, with the assurance of quality service. “20% of our sales come from the rest of Canada, so they are essential. We supply them with generic SpaceKap units or shelves, and they can fit them according to customer requirements.”
