DC Spotlight | Moncton, Canada

For more than 45 years, the Moncton Distribution Center has been a key connection point across Atlantic Canada. Since opening in February 1980, the facility has grown alongside the communities it serves and today supports restaurants across five Canadian provinces, from mainland Atlantic Canada to Newfoundland and Prince Edward Island.

Located in Moncton, New Brunswick, the 49,155-square-foot distribution center is home to 88 team members. In 2025, the team handled more than 3.7 million cases and completed nearly 250 deliveries each week to 127 restaurants.

Moncton’s geography makes it uniquely positioned to serve restaurants across New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, Quebec, Prince Edward Island, and Newfoundland and Labrador, requiring careful planning and coordination to ensure products arrive safely and on time. Dedicated routes connect communities across islands, coastal regions, and mainland provinces, showcasing the team's commitment to service and reliability.

The facility recently underwent a renovation in 2024, creating a modern work environment designed to support collaboration and employee wellbeing. Updates included an open-concept office space, new sit-stand desks, refreshed workspaces featuring Martin Brower branding, an upgraded kitchen area for team members to enjoy, along with an expanded parking lot to improve traffic flow and enhance safety.

Moncton is also helping lead Martin Brower's sustainability efforts in Canada. Earlier this year, the distribution center became the first Martin Brower facility in Canada to install shore power technology, allowing trucks to connect to electrical power while parked instead of idling their engines. The innovation helps reduce emissions while supporting a more efficient operation and it has reduced noise levels.
