The following is a preview from The Winnipeg Sun
Canada Post hit the picket lines Friday, creating immediate concerns for small businesses across the country. With the holiday shopping season already underway, local merchants are worried about disruptions to their delivery services and are scrambling to find alternatives.
“Trexity has been a part of the fabric of Winnipeg commerce,” Ahuja told the Winnipeg Sun. “The most Canadian thing we can do in moments of need is support one another. This is why we want all businesses to know that Trexity will be here to make sure this Canada Post strike does not disrupt the growth of our local economy.”
Trexity already partners with several well-known Winnipeg businesses, including True North Sports and Entertainment and the popular clothing store Danli. Ahuja’s extensive experience in e-commerce has been key to the company’s success. From his first start-up in 2006, which was later acquired by a Microsoft Gold Partner, to an executive role at Shopify where he helped scale Shopify Plus globally, Ahuja has a proven track record in the industry. Recognizing the growing demand for local delivery, he founded Trexity in 2019 with his co-founders, aiming to give small businesses a tool to compete against big players.
