Ray Outfitted is Growing
The majority of Ray Outfitted projects prior to June 2020 kept us on the road, bringing tools and equipment in our Custom Upfitted Sprinter coast to coast in Canada. With growing demand for off grid capabilities, we invested into a location to build a custom workshop shop. In October 2019 Ray Outfitted acquired property with a vision of creating a destination for overlanders needing upgrades, upfits and suspension work. Conveniently located off the Trans Canada highway and near many lakes, parks and trails.
We are based near Midland, Ontario.
We don’t post address or phone number to enable our focus to remain in the shop and active projects. Ray works on a limited number of projects at one time with quality, not speed, his priority.

Project Availability
Before installation there is design, planning and sourcing. All work is completed by Ray personally.
Installation dates are based on existing bookings and delivery of your materials and components. The pandemic has impacted supply chain and speed of deliveries, currently parts are taking up to 5 months to arrive. We order materials as quickly as possible in an effort to manage the risk of delays. “Full” upfits installation work typically take 2-5 months after parts have arrived but depends on complexity and current projects in the shop.

COVID-19 and COVID Campers
Ray Outfitted is following Ontario and Canadian Public Heath orders and remains vigilant. We are equipped with masks and cleaners to do out part to slow/stop the spread of COVID-19. In our personal lives, we follow public health guidelines and avoid in person interactions that aren’t essential.
The pandemic has increased appeal in off grid and self contained upfits for personal and business use. Canadian Van builder Ray Outfitted is pleased to be working with so many Canadians on their projects. Our custom workshop opened June 2020 and was built to support our client’s unique needs. As always, we take a consultation based approach to each new project, to support our client’s informed decision making and investment choices. www.rayoutfitted.ca/processs
With supply chains at new risks globally, we are ordering materials further in advance to decrease the likelihood of installation delays. Still, suppliers are working with limited information and unpreceded instability. In Fall 2020, some of our orders had 7+ months lead time due to back orders. Manufacturing, shipping and international supply chain remains vulnerable to shutdowns, restrictions and outbreak closures.
