Busy-Bee Sanitary Supplies Inc. has been a proud family owned and operated business since we first opened our doors in 1980. From the beginning, our goal has been simple: to provide dependable sanitary supplies, trusted equipment, and the kind of customer service that makes doing business easier. Today, we proudly serve the janitorial and sanitation markets across Alberta, British Columbia, Saskatchewan, and the Territories. Through a strong focus on customer satisfaction, reliable products, and long-term relationships, we have continued to grow into a trusted supplier with 8 locations throughout Western Canada.

Over the years, we have continued to grow and adapt as the janitorial and sanitation industry has rapidly changed. New standards, new technologies, and changing expectations have shaped the way facilities approach cleaning, and we have made it a priority to keep our customers equipped with the right products and solutions. Throughout every stage of our growth, the principles behind our mission statement, “We care enough to make your concerns ours,” have guided our team and helped us stay committed to doing what’s right for every customer. We believe that when our customers succeed, we succeed too, which is why we treat every concern, question, and request with real attention and support.

We carry a full range of superior products and supplies to meet the demands of a wide variety of industries and work environments. This includes a growing catalogue of environmentally friendly options, including LEED certified products designed for customers who prioritize sustainability without sacrificing cleaning performance. With the support of our highly knowledgeable staff, we can help you find the best products for your facility, your workflow, and your budget. Whether you know exactly what you need or you’re looking for recommendations, we take the time to understand your situation so we can match you with the right solution.

Although our customer base has traditionally been led by janitorial companies, we have also diversified our offerings to better meet the needs of our customers across a wider range of industries. Busy-Bee now offers several institutional programs created specifically for hotels, hospitals, schools, and other high-traffic facilities that require consistent results, reliable supply access, and products that support busy daily operations. These programs are designed to help organizations maintain clean, safe, professional environments while keeping supply ordering and inventory more efficient and manageable.

In addition to our constantly upgraded product selection, we also offer a wide range of commercial cleaning equipment to support customers who require dependable machines for larger spaces and demanding environments. We don’t just supply equipment, we also stand behind it. Our service technicians provide top-rate service and repair work for equipment purchased from Busy-Bee, helping customers keep their machines in excellent condition and minimize downtime. We believe equipment support matters just as much as product quality, and we take pride inproviding both under one roof.

Let Busy-Bee be your one-stop shop for cleaning supplies and equipment needs. We are proud to be a Canadian company and are committed to supporting the businesses and institutions that keep Western Canada running. When you choose us, you’re not just getting products, you’re getting a team that cares, a supplier that supports what we sell, and a partner you can count on for the long term.
