New marketplace for CDN grocers
TORONTO, Sept. 23, 2026 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- New open marketplace makes it fast and easy for retailers to discover and source from Canadian vendors who deliver to their area.
Purchs, the intelligent ordering and replenishment platform for grocery, today announced the launch of its open wholesale marketplace. Demand for Canadian products is reshaping grocery procurement. According to Statistics Canada, 40.7% of retailers reported increased sales of Canadian products, and nearly one-third of businesses importing from the United States planned to increase domestic sourcing. But finding those suppliers is still slow and manual. The Purchs marketplace closes that gap.
"Grocery retail is digitally modernizing, and the brands that leverage this as a market opportunity will win," says Marcia Woods, founder and CEO of Purchs. "As retailers lean harder than ever into stocking Canadian-made products, suppliers who don't adapt might risk being pushed off the shelf by those who do. We built this marketplace to make that shift easier and to put both retailers and suppliers on the winning side of it."
Suppliers can list their products on Purchs under a free account to get discovered or subscribe to unlock Purchs' automated order-to-cash system, turning inbound retailer interest directly into orders, invoicing, and payment without manual back-and-forth.
The marketplace launch builds on Purchs' core platform, which lets retailers place wholesale orders by text or web, without requiring suppliers to join first. Every transaction generates demand intelligence. Purchs is POS-agnostic and requires no app, no login, and no training.
