ABOUT US

MGF (Manitoulin Global Forwarding) is your specialist for international shipping with the proven experience and knowledge to provide optimal routing, accurate documentation and local knowledge.

MGF serves as the international freight arm for the Manitoulin Group of Companies.  Headquartered in Mississauga, Ontario, MGF has built an extensive network of owned/operated offices throughout Canada, the United States, and Mexico to serve the local and international supply chain needs of our customers in this expansive area.  Plans for continued growth within the United States and Mexico remain a priority, by means of acquisition, with a focus on best-in-class companies.

As we are continuing to provide best-in-class freight forwarding as a core service, MGF has gone through an evolution in recent years, expanding the scope of products and services in our toolbox.  Today we are Cargo Architects, focused on building customized, end-to-end supply chain solutions for moves around the corner or around the globe.  In addition to generalized cargo, MGF now specializes in refrigerated/temperature-controlled goods, commodities (such as lumber, pulp & paper, pulses), and raw materials.  The way we look at freight may have changed, but who we are has not; MGF remains customer-centric, system-oriented, solution providers that understand your business.

CARING ABOUT YOUR BUSINESS IS NOT OUR JOB – IT’S OUR CORPORATE RESPONSIBILITY!

At MGF, our strength is in our people.  Dedicated to providing customers with the highest standard of service, our team utilizes dynamic communication and innovative systems technology to ensure the flow of information is accurate with a priority on response times, speed to market, and communication.  Further examples of our customer-centric approach include the creation of our dedicated reefer and commodities desks, with dedicated teams handling specific products for specific customers.
