UNISYNC ON THE MOVE
Unisync is a broad-based vertically integrated Canadian enterprise with exceptional capabilities in garment design, domestic manufacturing, and off-shore outsourcing, including state-of-the-art web based B2B ordering, distribution, and program management systems. Unisync operates through two business units: Unisync Group Limited (“UGL”) and Peerless Garments LP (“Peerless”).
UGL provides full-service, managed apparel programs for major corporations and government-related entities through operations in Calgary, Carleton Place (Ottawa Region), Guelph, Mississauga, Moncton, Montreal and Vancouver. Its customer base includes a broad list of Canadian iconic brands as well as municipal and provincial agencies across Canada. The acquisition of Montreal based Utility Garments Inc. (“Utility”) in October of this fiscal year established a full-service base in Quebec to better service Quebec clients and National customers with operations in Quebec. With 80 years of dedicated service to clients based in Quebec and other parts of Canada, Utility also provides a quality design team and supporting in-house manufacturing and distribution capabilities. UGL’s recently announced expansion into the US sets the stage to better facilitate the servicing of current international clients with extensive operations in the US. Conversely, our North American footprint will now provide an opportunity for prospective US corporations with operations in Canada to utilize the uniform services of a more broadly based bi-lingual Canadian service provider to manage their apparel programs.
Winnipeg based Peerless specializes in the manufacturing and distribution of highly technical protective garments, military operational clothing, and accessories for a broad spectrum of Federal, Provincial and Municipal government agencies.
