Hike Metal Products Ltd

Since 1958, our company has grown steadily, supporting the local fishing industry by providing new vessels and ongoing repairs.

In the late 1970s and early 1980s, we realized that we needed to redefine our corporate goals and the strategies we would use to achieve them. In part, this included diversifying and expanding our product range, which included the boats, ships, and vessels that we could build. It also included delivery and after-sales service for domestic and international clients. Our facilities were restructured and up-graded in order to offer our customers the most modern, well equipped and efficient shipbuilding, boatbuilding and repair operation on the Great Lakes. This up-grading resulted in essentially the "re-birth" of the company into the world class boat builder we are known as today. Centrally and strategically located on the north shore of Lake Erie near Detroit USA and Windsor Canada with direct access to the St Lawrence Seaway, we are ideally situated to access key suppliers throughout North America , and also deliver our custom built vessels to customers globally.

Our highly skilled team, many of whom have been with us since the company's inception, is one of our greatest assets. They pass on their skills of craftsmanship to younger generations. We maintain a family of "Master Boat builders".

Stressing individual creativity and initiative, we have cultured an attitude of both pride and performance in every new boat or ship built, or repair turned out. This is evident through out each phase of the work process . Our team continues to improve, raising the standard for both quality and value. We have grown into a manufacturer that has one of the largest portfolios of rugged, high-performance custom built boats, vessels and ships in the world. Our reputation has grown to be internationally recognized for its versatility, reliability, and competitiveness. We are proud of the quality vessels that we build and of our company, but we are most proud of the people who build them. The value we have placed on human resources has been a rewarding one, one which we attribute our continuing success.
