Your freight forwarder in Vaughan.
Setara is based in Vaughan, alongside CPKC's largest Canadian intermodal terminal and CN's MacMillan Yard. Ocean, air, rail and road, quoted and managed from a desk that works in the same city your freight does.

Every mode, one desk.
Most forwarders sell you one leg. Setara quotes and manages the whole shipment: the ocean or air leg, the rail move inland, the drayage off the ramp and the final mile to the door, with customs arranged through a licensed customs broker partner.
Both national railways. One home team.
Vaughan is one of the few cities where both national railways run major operations: CPKC's Vaughan Intermodal Terminal, its largest in Canada, and CN's MacMillan Yard in Concord, one of the country's biggest classification yards. Around them, the Vaughan Enterprise Zone has grown into one of the GTA's largest industrial districts, with hundreds of logistics, manufacturing and distribution operations working off Highways 400, 407 and 427.
It is also where Setara lives. We quote and manage complete shipments from here: import boxes off the CPKC ramp, ocean and air legs booked at origin, truckload and LTL across Canada and over the US border, with customs arranged through a licensed customs broker partner. When your freight moves through Vaughan, it moves through our backyard.
