About the company

OSL runs customer-facing sales programs for North American retailers and consumer brands, placing representatives in client locations to explain products and guide purchase decisions. It recruits and manages retail teams for in-store staffing and merchandising, then runs neighborhood marketing and door-to-door sales for business and consumer customers. The company also supports clients with e-commerce platform work that connects online and physical retail. Brands contract OSL to design and operate these sales services on their behalf, rather than buying a consumer product sold under OSL's name. Established in 2012, OSL is headquartered in Mississauga, Ontario.
