Arpin International Group Wins FIDI’s Commitment To Excellence Gold Award

Arpin recognized by FIDI for its commitment to staff learning and development.

Arpin International Group is honored to receive FIDI’s Commitment to Excellence Gold Award. Arpin earned recognition from FIDI — the most significant global alliance of professional international moving and relocation companies — six times in ten years.

Arpin International Group, an award-winning global moving and storage company, is pleased to announce the acquisition of Stephens Moving Services of Cape Coral, Florida, USA, a long-standing company specializing in servicing United States/Canada cross-border moves for private residential customers. This acquisition will facilitate the continued growth of Arpin’s transportation management solutions in North America.

The Arpin family has its earliest roots in Canadian history, having started their moving business in Drummondville, Quebec, back in 1900 before immigrating to the United States. So, it was just a matter of time before the Arpin family returned to their origins. In 1992 the company began to offer its customers one of the best, most thorough United States/Canada cross-border services, as well as within the Canadian provinces.

“Arpin is excited about its continued expansion into Canada. The United States and Canada are each other’s largest trading partners, representing $125M in crossborder moves annually. The acquisition of Stephens Moving Services enables Arpin to provide its world class moving services and bonded warehouses to major Canadian markets — especially in the provinces of Alberta, British Columbia, Ontario, and Quebec,” said Peter Arpin, president of Arpin International Group.
