About Swift
Founded in Abbotsford.
Built for BC's Lower Mainland.
Swift Labor and Sanitation Services exists because BC's operators deserve a staffing partner that shows up on time, shows up trained, and doesn't disappear after the first month.
Our story
We saw a gap between what BC operators need and what staffing agencies actually deliver.
Cannabis rooms, food plants, meat facilities, warehouses, lumber mills, bakeries, and grow ops share the same frustration: they need reliable crews fast, with compliance training already in place, at rates that don't blow the shift budget. Most agencies hand off warm bodies and call it a day.
We launched Swift to do it differently. One roster covers the whole site: general labour, sanitation technicians, QA, machine operators, certified electricians, welders, power engineers, and forklift drivers, dispatched on demand at the best rates in the province. Temp crews by the shift, contract staff by the month, same phone number either way.
Purpose-built for the kinds of shifts that happen at 5 AM in a sanitation window, in a flower room at harvest, on a bakery line that cannot pause, or in a plant waiting on a licensed electrician before the next run starts.
Founded in Abbotsford. Home base is the Lower Mainland, crews dispatched anywhere in BC.
Our values
Three non-negotiables.
Reliability over promises
When we commit to a 6 AM start, our crew is in the parking lot at 5:45. If we can't staff a role, we say so. We don't waste your shift.
Safety as a standard
Every Swift worker is WHMIS-trained before their first shift. Food-grade and cannabis roles get industry-specific orientation. WorkSafeBC coverage is fully handled.
Respect for the work
Our workers get fair hours, fair pay, and a clear path to regular rotations. That's why they show up consistently for the employers who count on them.
Training & compliance
Every crew audit-ready on day one.
We run training internally so your compliance reviews don't start with "who is this new contractor?"
