Non-notable company. Nothing significant but another company. For being in Wikipedia need to be much more significant than this. Else Wikipedia will become a directory. 1000s of startups happens every day. Just another one happened a long time ago. Notability required repeated significant coverage by media as well as significance in itself. building Wikiepdia page for their publicity. covered mostly by Startup blogs not the notable media. Popular media used only for Press or news for company. Nothing significant coverage by these media. Once in a lifetime coverage. Nothing notable to be here. Thousands of online stores are there. Wikipedia is not store directory. Light2021 (talk) 19:50, 2 October 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete and this was actually PRODed nearly 5 years ago and it actually got worse, with PR sources being added, but fortunately we now have the choices and images to show why we must delete these; everything listed is so overspecific about the company, this is clearly an article that was started for PR and was likely part of a PR campaign, nothing listed comes close to actual substance, and is simply republished PR and what the company says itself, it's all trivial.

 * Delete. Too promotional to consider. "the team approached a number of independent grocers around Toronto to be their supply partner. Anthony Longo and his team stepped forward and were exceptional partners. They provided access to the stores for the team to take pictures of all of the products, record the relevant information and start to build "picking route maps". " if that's not an example of a not very impressive web page, not an encyclopedia article. We could of course remove absurd puffery, but if we removed it all there ere would be nothing left.

 * Delete with fire as corporate spam. The project should not be allowing WP:BOGOF articles, written by paid contributors. This wastes volunteer editors' time and results in articles on non notable subjects in the bargain. This only encourages spammers. K.e.coffman (talk) 03:06, 8 October 2016 (UTC)
