Nipawin, SK (September 29, 2025) – North Fringe Industrial Technologies Inc. is proud to announce it received the Growth & Expansion (Small Business) Award at the Saskatchewan Chamber of Commerce ABEX Awards, presented Conexus Credit Union and sponsored by PFM Capital Inc. The Growth & Expansion Award recognizes small businesses with fewer than 50 employees that have achieved significant growth through strategic initiatives, expanded services, or new market development.
This recognition comes as North Fringe celebrates 20 years in business, marking two decades of steady growth as a national leader in dewatering and industrial equipment solutions. Headquartered in northeast Saskatchewan, with operations in Alberta, Ontario, and Nova Scotia, the company supports customers in every province and territory across the country. North Fringe’s success has been built by a team that thrives on solving complex challenges and by partnerships founded on trust and long-term commitment.
Widely regarded as Saskatchewan’s top business honours, the ABEX Awards celebrate outstanding achievement in entrepreneurship, innovation, and community leadership across the province. North Fringe’s recognition reflects both a long-standing commitment to excellence and a future focused on national growth and service. That momentum continues this fall, as President Brett Cain has been named a finalist in the prestigious EY Entrepreneur Of The Year® Prairies program, further showcasing North Fringe’s leadership and impact across Canada’s critical industries.
