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. This in part included diversity and expansion of our product range of boats, ships and vessels we could build, including the delivery and after sales service of these for both domestic and global 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 upgrade resulted in the "rebirth" of our company as the world-class boat builder that we are 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.

With vessels in service worldwide, one of our greatest assets today is our team of highly skilled personnel, many having been with the firm since its' inception, passing down their craftsmanship skills to newer 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 in every phase of the process. Our team is constantly improving, raising the bar for 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.
