Own your own business, be your own boss! Work from home in your own home town! A Skookum Tools franchise puts you in the driver's seat to success!
Headquartered in Victoria, BC, it was here that the Skookum prototype was tested and proven, and here that the first franchise was launched. With sustainable growth in mind, Skookum franchise opportunities radiate from our home base. Territories are now being opened up throughout BC and Alberta and will ultimately be available across Canada and in the United States.

Skookum Tools utilises the well proven business model of the "Tool Truck" but applies this concept to a market that has not been serviced this way in the past. The primary focus of a Skookum Tools franchise is to provide industrial quality consumable shop supplies to a variety of manufacturing and repair trades from a mobile "warehouse on wheels". The customer base consists of metalworking, woodworking, fibreglass, marine, aircraft, automotive, government and institutions.
