Apollo Sheet Metal has a long history rooted in Vancouver’s ever-changing business landscape. In February 1970, Apollo Sheet Metal opened the doors to a 2,500- square-foot shop on Charlotte Road in North Vancouver. It had five employees at the time.
Six years later the business had grown to 25 employees and moved to Palm Avenue in Burnaby, and in 1980 Apollo Sheet Metal relocated again to a 10,000-square-foot shop on Short Street in Burnaby. The Short Street shop was later expanded by 5,000 square feet as the business flourished and provided gainful employment for up to 65 people.
In 1992, the company moved into “Apollo 1,” a 34,000-square-foot, custom-built shop that would become the first in a three-building development that launched the business into high production.
“Apollo 2” followed in 2004, and in 2010 “Apollo 3” opened its doors. Today, Apollo Sheet Metal delivers manufacturing services from its two-building, 70,000-square foot facility in Coquitlam. This space and the determination of a 110-person base crew (and climbing) have created endless possibilities for Apollo Sheet Metal..
