For more than 15 years, Evolution Fulfillment has been at the heart of Canada’s footwear industry. From Redback Boots’ rugged workwear to EMU Australia’s cozy sheepskin, from Chinese Laundry’s trend-forward heels to Flojos’ laid-back flip-flops — we’ve handled it all. We’ve shipped for every major shoe retailer in Canada and partnered with global footwear brands to make sure their products reach customers exactly as intended.

Whether it’s full case packs heading to national retailers or individual pairs shipped direct to a customer’s doorstep, our team has the systems, the know-how, and the track record to get it right every time.

Why Footwear Fulfillment is Different

Footwear isn’t like other products — it has its own set of challenges that require specialist expertise.

  • High SKU complexity
    One style of shoe can have dozens of size, width, and color combinations. Keeping them organized and in stock demands precision inventory management.
  • Protective packaging
    Shoes are often boxed within boxes, and damage-free delivery is essential to customer satisfaction.
  • Seasonality & surges
    Launches, fashion seasons, and holiday spikes require flexible capacity.
  • High return rates
    Footwear sizing can be tricky, so brands need a returns process that’s fast, efficient, and brand-protective.
  • Retail compliance
    Major retailers have strict requirements for carton labeling, ticketing, and packaging — any error can cost time and money.

At Evolution, these challenges aren’t obstacles — they’re our specialty.
