Swift Canoe and Kayak
Their company swiftly grew!
Swift Canoe and Kayak was founded by Bill Swift Senior, who operated the plant under the name Sawyer Canoe until 1986 when his son Bill Swift Junior took it over and changed it to Swift Canoe and Kayak to reflect the family name. With their dedicated, innovative research and development team, their goal is to build the ultimate recreational, light touring, and tripping boats.
Swift Canoe focuses on the need for functional, technically advanced canoes and kayaks that provide true performance benefits to the consumer. By far Canada and the United States are the company's biggest sales markets. But sales are increasing overseas thanks to the company having a dealer in Austria.
In its early days as a company, it made 1-2 canoes a day. Now, they can make up to 13 boats a day, and the workers make a little more than 2,000 canoes and a little less than 500 kayaks a year.
