BUILDING TRUST. CREATING TOGETHER. Akhurst Machinery Limited was founded by William (W.A.) Akhurst, in 1938.

In addition to the head office in Vancouver, branch offices were added in Edmonton (1960), Mississauga (1961), Longueuil (1965), and Dieppe (1970). To this day, the company remains family-owned and is now in its 4th generation. Over the years, Akhurst has established itself as a leading distributor of high-quality industrial equipment to the secondary woodworking, structural steel, sheet metal, & machine tool industries.
