He came to Upper Canada around 1787 under the auspices of family friend John Forsyth, of Forsyth, Richardson & Company and settled at Niagara a year later. In 1795, he moved to York (now Toronto). In 1797, he opened a general store with Alexander Wood, later becoming sole owner. In 1800, Allan was named a justice of the peace in the Home District and, in 1801, became the postmaster at York. During the War of 1812, he served as major in the York militia and negotiated the terms of surrender when York was first captured by the American forces. His store was looted during this period.

Allan also served as a director of the Canada Company, which was formed to develop and sell property within the province. In 1834, he became governor of the British America Fire and Life Assurance Company. From 1829–1831 he was chairman of the Home District Council.Allan was a close friend of the Reverend John Strachan and his close connections to the Family Compact led to an appointment on the Legislative Council in 1825.
