Please review steps we are taking towards Reconciliation Letter from Meraki Resources
Our Story
The origins of Meraki Resources start with David Hoy. In 1975, David started a small, local trucking business called David Hoy Trucking. Based in Fort St. James, David’s business quickly grew under his passionate and dedicated leadership. Even at its outset, the business maintained a strong commitment to delivering value and exemplary service to its customers, partners, and employees.
As the company grew, so did its scope and offerings. From David Hoy Trucking, it transitioned first to Tsayta Trucking and then to K&D Logging. Family owned and operated, the business was soon guided by the next generation of the Hoy family, who expanded its service offerings in order to provide better and more integrated solutions to their partners. Under this new generation, K&D Logging became known as the KDL Group.
As the company grew in scope and size, the KDL Group developed a reputation for reliable, innovative, and comprehensive service. In 2010, the company started operations on Vancouver Island with Fall River Logging, acquiring Bluepoint Construction and Forbidden Mechanical in 2018. The company diversified itself across Western Canada and into new industries through strategic expansions, acquisitions, and partnerships. To reflect this new identity, in 2020, the company rebranded itself as Meraki Resources. Rooted in authenticity, community, and purpose, this new brand served to communicate the company’s unified mission and goals.
Today, Meraki continues to uphold the same values and family feel that it had when it first started half a century ago. In developing and dynamic industries, Meraki believes in the importance of establishing long-lasting partnerships and relationships. We intentionally seek to drive and create value for those we work with. We have big plans here, and we’re just getting started.
