National Experiential Campaign
A leading marketing agency managing a national experiential campaign for a consumer brand. The coast-to-coast promotional logistics campaign rollout involved coupon mailers, chocolate samples, and electrolyte drinks distributed to 78 retail locations.
Coupon Mailers
Chocolate Samples
Electrolyte Drinks
The Objective
Deliver every kit to stores nationwide within a 3-day window, perfectly synchronized with an immovable in-store launch date. Every location needed to receive its shipment on time, complete, and ready for setup. With dozens of suppliers involved and hundreds of stores across Canada, even a single delay could disrupt the entire campaign. Precision, coordination, and communication were absolutely essential from start to finish.
Zero margin for error. Weekend and off-hour deliveries required. Standard carriers couldn’t guarantee coast-to-coast timing.
Multi-Vendor Chaos
Coast-to-Coast promotional logistics campaign rollouts often face one critical bottleneck — timing. Each vendor ships separately, creating chaos at store level:
Staggered Arrival
Mailers arrive before samples, drinks delayed in transit
Store-Level Scrambling
Staff must coordinate and track partial shipments from multiple sources
No Accountability
Multiple suppliers means multiple points of failure with no single contact
Why Standard Carriers Failed
Multiple suppliers. Multiple shipments. No control.
• Couldn’t guarantee coast-to-coast timing
• No weekend or off-hour delivery options
• Immovable launch dates with zero margin for error
The Solution: QRC’s Coast-to-Coast Promotional Logistics Campaign Rollout
The agency consolidated everything through QRC Logistics.
All SKUs — samples, coupons, and drinks — were received, kitted, staged, and released from QRC’s 300,000 sq. ft. facility near Toronto Pearson Airport.
Here’s what that looked like in action:
Centralized Intake
Kitting & Deconsolidation
Each store’s package was assembled with all required campaign items.
Hold-and-Release
Timed Delivery
Off-Hour Execution
