Product Specialist

Who we are

Fairview Ltd. began in 1969 as a small manufacturer and distributor of fittings and hoses in Toronto. Today, we’ve evolved into an international company with sales and distribution centers across Canada and the United States—including our head office and CSA‑lab equipped facility in Oakville, Ontario—with over 15,000 active line items in our catalog and more than 250,000 sq ft of warehousing capacity.

We supply a comprehensive range of high‑quality industrial fittings, hoses and other quality products to distributors and OEMs across multiple sectors. Known for our same‑day or next‑day turnaround, we uphold trusted, long‑term partnerships with customers, suppliers, and employees alike. As a family business, we invest in continuous improvement via in‑house training, management development, and technical seminars.

Guided by our mission to develop trusted long-term partnerships and create product solutions supporting the energy, transportation, and infrastructure markets, we are embarking on the next stage of our evolution: modernizing our people practices to align with our vision of delivering innovative and safe solutions.
