Toronto is Air Canada’s cargo hub and the new terminal allows Air Canada to handle growing volumes with increased efficiency and enhanced customer service. This CLM tour presents an opportunity to see how.

The work environment for employees is modern, clean and bright. There are new furnishings and adequate space for customers and employees alike. This is an exciting step towards the future as Air Canada Cargo enters the new millennium!
Some main features to look forward to are:
- Access to accurate information about the location of equipment.
- More truck bays, enhanced truck interface equipment.
- vastly increased storage capacity, with ICS Inventory Control System.
- The AS/RS Automated Storage/Retrieval System will result in shorter wait times.
