Company Description

People Store Staffing Solutions marks the inception of a truly Canadian success story in the staffing industry. The journey began in 1995 when the founder entered the staffing world right after college at the age of 20.

After several years with large multinational firms, contributing significantly to their growth in the Canadian market, the founder amassed 9 years of industry experience and a commendable track record. Ready for a new challenge and driven by rapid changes and declining values in the industry, the decision was made to reintroduce quality standards. This initiative later evolved into the People Store Quality Assurance Program (PQAP).

Encouraged by a close friend and seasoned entrepreneur, the founder embarked on a solo venture in 2003. Armed with a business plan crafted at a kitchen table, an idea, a dream, and immense ambition, the firm was launched. This marked the beginning of one of the most successful staffing enterprises in Canada.
