About This City
Scarborough; 2021 Census 629,941, is a district of Toronto, Ontario, Canada, atop the Scarborough Bluffs in the eastern part of the city. Its borders are Victoria Park Avenue to the west, Steeles Avenue to the north, Rouge River and the city of Pickering to the east, and Lake Ontario to the south. It borders Old Toronto, East York and North York in the west and the city of Markham in the north. Scarborough was named after the English town of Scarborough, North Yorkshire.
Scarborough, which was settled by Europeans in the 1790s, has grown from a collection of small rural villages and farms to become fully urbanized with a diverse cultural community. Incorporated in 1850 as a township, Scarborough became part of Metropolitan Toronto in 1953 and was reconstituted as a borough in 1967. Scarborough rapidly developed as a suburb of Toronto over the next decade and became a city in 1983. In 1998, Scarborough and the rest of Metropolitan Toronto were amalgamated into the present city of Toronto. The Scarborough Civic Centre – the former city’s last seat of government – is occupied by municipal government of Toronto offices.
Some of our Clients in This City
Companies often consider supply chain optimization when there’s a significant event, such as a merger or acquisition, or when there are concerns surrounding financial results. Perhaps transportation costs are rising, or service levels are falling, and other members of your supply chain are complaining. As suppliers expand meet changing expectations, supply chains have begun to grow in an ad hoc fashion. Response to e-commerce demand has led companies to bolt on direct-sales capabilities without integrating them into other channels, eventually leading to higher costs and fragmented management.
The process for a supply chain optimization typically starts with a thorough analysis based on forecast demand, followed by the development of a production and inventory plan to meet the forecast. The study includes inbound raw materials or components, manufacturing, transportation and distribution. It’s also an opportunity to examine the possibilities for better integrating e-commerce through an omnichannel strategy.
