Canada Post Strike

CUPW has issued a strike notification to Canada Post.  They have yet to say whether this will be a rotating strike or whether it will be a nationwide shut down.  During this time we are going to continue to try and offer free shipping using wither Purolator or UPS so that our customers can continue to ensure that they get there parcels in a timely manner.  Although we would like to say that we will be able to offer this service to all of our customers for some orders this is simply not feasible.

We hope that this strike will not last for long and hope that you will continue to support our business during these difficult days.  We appreciate your patience and understanding in these matters.

Since the Canada Post strike we have had to work on finding different avenues of shipping our parcels to you our valued customers.  Having said that we found out that some of these methods provided a better service to you than you were previously getting with Canada Post.  With some others our shipping costs were greatly reduced using these carriers.

We have made the decision that for the time being we are going to continue to offer these other shipping options to you, our valued customers.  For this reason some of you will be getting your free shipping option through carriers such as UPS of Purolator, simply because they are faster and provide the service for less expense.  With the coffee prices on a dramatic rise we are hoping to be able to pass some of these savings on to you our customers by keeping our prices lower.

We look forward to serving all your green coffee and home coffee roasting needs going into the new year!
