Mr. Case was founded in the summer of 1984, when university student Marc Levin began delivering supermarket items by the case door-to-door in residential Toronto neighbourhoods. The orders started coming in, along with requests for more products, and in 1986 Mr. Case expanded into a large warehouse/distribution centre.[1]
