In Precious Minerals Transported
Since 2008, we have moved over $50 billion in gold, platinum, palladium, diamonds, and rare earth minerals across Canada and around the world.
Why We Exist
Canada produces over $50 billion in mineral wealth annually. Gold, platinum, palladium, diamonds, uranium, lithium, and rare earth elements flow from mines across the country. Yet for decades, the logistics of moving these irreplaceable assets lagged behind the value they represent.
Royal Canadian Logistics was founded to close that gap. Our mission is simple: to provide the most secure, reliable, and transparent logistics service for precious commodities anywhere in the world.
"We don't just move cargo. We move wealth, livelihoods, and the building blocks of the global economy. That responsibility shapes everything we do."Robert Chamberlain, Founder & CEO

Built on Trust. Driven by Precision.
Royal Canadian Logistics was founded in Toronto by Robert Chamberlain, a former Canadian Forces logistics officer who recognized that Canada's most valuable export deserved a logistics partner operating at the same standard as the assets themselves.
From three armored vehicles and a team of twelve, we have grown into Canada's leading mineral logistics provider. Today, 250+ professionals across 12 secure facilities serve 120+ mining operations, gold refineries, government mints, and financial institutions.

The Royal Canadian Logistics Story
From a single armored vehicle in Toronto to Canada's largest mineral logistics network. This is how we became the gold standard in precious cargo logistics.
The Beginning
In 2008, Robert Chamberlain stood in a Yellowknife airport watching $12 million in gold doré being loaded onto a commercial flight in cardboard boxes. As a former Canadian Forces logistics officer with two tours managing high-value military supply chains, he knew there had to be a better way.
Within six months, he had secured three armored vehicles, recruited eleven former military and RCMP colleagues, and signed his first contract with a Yukon gold mining operation. Royal Canadian Logistics was born out of a simple conviction: Canada's most valuable export deserved a logistics partner operating at the same standard as the assets themselves.
Building the Network
The early years were defined by relentless focus. Every contract won was proof that the mining industry was hungry for a partner that understood both security and logistics at the deepest level. By 2011, word of mouth had delivered our first major exclusive agreement with one of Canada's top five gold producers.
That contract changed everything. It proved the model worked at scale and gave us the capital to invest in our vault network. In 2014, we opened three Class III vault facilities in Toronto, Vancouver, and Calgary, each engineered to standards that exceeded anything available in the Canadian market. Lloyd's of London agreed, certifying us for coverage up to $500 million per facility.

By the Numbers
The Technology Edge
In 2017, we launched RCL-Track, our proprietary satellite tracking platform. For the first time, clients could see exactly where their gold was, in real time, from any device. By 2023, we integrated AI-powered route optimization that analyzes weather patterns, road conditions, security threats, and traffic data to calculate the safest and fastest path for every shipment.
Today, every vehicle in our fleet transmits location, speed, temperature, humidity, and tamper seal status every 30 seconds. Our 24/7 command center monitors every active shipment simultaneously. If anything deviates from the plan, our response teams are alerted within seconds.
Our Commitment
Every day, our team handles shipments that represent not just monetary value, but the livelihoods of miners, the reserves of central banks, and the raw materials of the global technology sector. We never lose sight of what is at stake.
As we enter our third decade, we remain as focused as the day we started: providing the most secure, reliable, and transparent logistics service for precious commodities anywhere in the world. No shortcuts. No compromises. Every gram accounted for.
