About the Company

This is a well-established, privately owned metal fabrication business that has been operating successfully for over 15 years . From its 17,000 sq. ft. Scarborough facility , the company produces high-quality, precision components for a variety of industries using modern equipment, including a new laser cutter, advanced bending equipment, and complementary fabrication machinery .

What truly sets this company apart is its reputation. Much of its business comes through word-of-mouth referrals , a direct result of consistent quality, reliability, and craftsmanship. Customers trust this shop because it delivers — every time.

The owner is deeply invested in the future of the business and is now looking to bring in a strong shop-floor leader who can take ownership of day-to-day production and people leadership. This role is critical to enabling the owner to focus on strategic growth while continuing to build a strong foundation for the next generation of leadership within the company.

If you’re someone who takes pride in running a clean, organized, high-quality shop and mentoring people to do their best work, this is an opportunity to make a real, lasting impact.
