Alu-Cab Canada Expansion
Cap-it Expands Alu-Cab Across Canada
National expansion strengthens Alu-Cab availability with new Eastern Canadian distribution support
Since 1977, Cap-it has focused on helping Canadians get more out of their vehicles, from truck accessories and camping gear to vehicle-based adventure systems.
Today, we’re proud to announce a major milestone in that journey.
Effective June 1, 2026: Cap-it becomes the exclusive Canadian distributor and direct importer for Alu-Cab in Canada.
This national expansion builds on a successful partnership that began in 2022, when Cap-it first introduced Alu-Cab to Western Canada. Over the past several years, demand for premium overlanding products has continued to grow across the country, helping establish Alu-Cab as one of the most respected brands in the category.
Expanding Across Canada
To support this growth, Cap-it has officially opened a new Eastern Canadian distribution centre in Mississauga, Ontario, complementing our existing Langley, British Columbia facility.
This expanded infrastructure allows for:
- Faster delivery timelines across Eastern Canada
- Improved national inventory availability
- Better support for dealers and installation partners
- Continued investment in the growth of the Alu-Cab brand nationwide
With distribution now spanning coast-to-coast, Cap-it is positioned to better serve customers from British Columbia to Atlantic Canada.
Why Alu-Cab?
Founded in 1990 in Cape Town, South Africa, Alu-Cab has become globally recognized for its aluminum canopies, rooftop tents, and fully integrated vehicle-based camping systems.
Built in South Africa for remote travel and harsh environments, Alu-Cab products are designed for people who rely on their equipment far beyond the pavement.
For Cap-it, the partnership is a natural fit.
As a retail-driven company with deep roots in truck accessories and vehicle recreation, we understand the importance of products that are functional, durable, and built for real-world use.
Building the Brand the Right Way
“This is the result of several years of building the Alu-Cab brand in Western Canada,” said Mason Funk, President of Cap-it International. “We’ve seen how well the product performs in our market and how strongly it resonates with customers.”
“Expanding nationally allows us to support the brand properly, improve availability, and continue growing Alu-Cab the right way across Canada.”
Cap-it will continue to offer Alu-Cab products directly through Shop.Capit.com while also expanding its network of qualified dealers and installation partners in Eastern Canada.
Looking Ahead
As Cap-it approaches its 50th anniversary in 2027, this expansion marks another major milestone in the company’s continued evolution.
We’re excited about the future of the Alu-Cab brand in Canada and look forward to continuing to support customers seeking premium vehicle-based adventure systems built for exploration.
