Overall capacity is increased in distribution operations, underground infrastructure, and transmission line construction. Remcon Ltd. continues to firmly establish itself in the Canadian markets.

1997-1999

Strong work ethic and determination fuels Remcon's steady growth in Western Canada. During this period Remcon initiates an acquisition strategy to further ourselves throughout Western Canada.

1999-2009

Through continued success in the market, Remcon's family experiences further growth through the acquisition of RS Line Contr. Co. Ltd. while continuing a successful western Canadian expansion.

“The safety culture at Forbes is unique”

Each and every person who works here believes in and supports our safety program. Not because they feel that they have to, but rather because they believe in it and feel/see the value in safety success. I know that my coworkers are looking out for me and vice versa.
