In 1973, to better reflect the full extent of Swish’s capabilities, the name was changed to Swish Maintenance Limited. Since then, we continually expand our facilities and develop innovative products to meet the changing needs of our customers.

Swish has always believed in giving back to the industry in order to help foster advancement and innovation in sanitation and cleaning. Since our inception, we have been an active member of the ISSA (International Sanitation Supply Association)and the CSSA (Canadian Sanitation Supply Association). We are also an active member of Balpex Inc.and support a variety of trade organizations.

Today, Swish continues to be privately owned by the Ambler family. Members of the third generation can be found throughout the Swish Group of Companies having active roles in growing and developing the family business.

Our commitment to being family-centric has fostered a strong sense of loyalty amongst our staff. We’re proud to say that many members of our staff are long-term employees who have helped us become a dynamic and diverse company that attracts new generations of dedicated talent. What began as a one product supply house with 2 employees and a single location is now a leading distributor with over 300 employees.

We demonstrate this through:

• Responding quickly and professionally to the needs of our Valued Customers as we strive to develop long term relationships based on mutual trust and benefits
