We started in 1998 and operated as a part-time business out of the home. A-1 started by selling shopping bags and slowly kept adding more items. Now we have over 3000 products! Thanks to our customers’ full support, we are still growing day by day.

We began from our home garage, then moved to Budget storage, then to various units in Mississauga, and now have our main distribution centre of 46,000 square feet at 6300 Kennedy Road, in Mississauga, Ontario.
