Ontario delivery company claims a deal between the LCBO and an international logistics company to operate a warehouse near Toronto is squeezing them out of the alcohol business.

The legal claim alleges the new site was poorly managed by the private company, leaving drivers waiting hours to pick up products that would then often be broken or mislabelled.

Phyxiat claims the issues it experienced were not incompetence, but part of a move to squeeze it out of a market.

The lawsuit alleges that a corporation run by an international courier DHL — along with LCBO — worked deliberately to make it harder for the courier to operate.

The lawsuit alleges the LCBO and Trillium agreed to cut the courier out of the liquor supply chain.

The LCBO denies it has made any financial gains or profits related to Phyxiat .

The lawsuit also claims that Trillum has “been actively soliciting’s clients’ clients and that the agreement was being carried out “in a manner to eliminate” or “to knowingly and intentionally damage”.
