GORD HUFSKY & JOHN HUFSKY

To say that Gord and John Hufsky have grown up in the industry would understate their immersion in the business. At a young age and under the scrupulous eye of their father who emigrated from Germany and founded the company, both brothers maintained the warehouse, unloaded ocean containers, picked and packed orders and made deliveries to customers. Throughout their careers Gord and John have touched and actively worked in every aspect of the business from sourcing and supply chain to sales and marketing.

The unique hands-on approach to managing the business, a transfer of knowledge gained by years of experience, and a dedication to correctly training all staff to do the “right things in the right way” are key attributes driving continued success and growth.
