About:
QuickBond was established in 2010 to make bonding more accessible to smaller suppliers, service contractors and builders and to those requiring only occasional bonds and seeking to avoid the substantial annual administrative fees currently required. QuickBond has a minimum service fee of $600 compared to industry standards of $1,500-5,000.
Client Testimonial:
“The purpose of this message is to acknowledge the good folks at BFL Canada for their outstanding commercial insurance products and services and in particular for their enormous contribution to the construction industry. In my capacity as a construction association leader, I meet BFL clients on a daily basis and the feedback I receive from our membership is that BFL is attentive, cost competitive and delivers results. I have had the privilege of working directly with representatives from BFL for a great many years and for the record, I echo the sentiment of the TCA members whose businesses have benefited through their association with BFL. And for that reason, I am delighted to provide a reference.””

About:
Hamster’s unique and creative business model is based on a network of four warehouses in major urban centres and more than 100 local stores that are designed to offset high transportation costs and optimize last-mile logistics, the tallest challenge for all Canadian distributors. The ability to offer quality products at a competitive price on the strength of robust logistics is a major selling point.
Client Testimonial:
“J.W. Bird (Bird Stairs) has been dealing with Hamster (Novexco, Lyreco, Nova Scotia Stationers) for over 15 years. It is ironic that throughout all the name swaps and staff changes, the quality of service has never dwindled for even a second. During the many years of stationery ordering, I have also had the pleasure of getting to know staff on a more personal level. The best part of that, is the relationship is based on trust, not just costs. I am very pleased with all levels of assistance we get from Hamster, whether it is material we need in a hurry or just regular stocking orders. The support we get from Jennifer Price, our sales representative through all the channels to the driver, Kerry Hodgson, is exactly what we require. They really try to do whatever they can to help our daily situations and exceed customer service. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Hamster to anyone looking for office products. The work they put in to satisfying the customer exceeds all other.”
