Who we are

SIMSA (the Saskatchewan Industrial and Mining Suppliers Association) is a nonprofit organization representing more than 340 Saskatchewan-based supplier-members who provide goods and services to the industrial, mining, and energy sectors.

Our memberships’ Saskatchewan sales currently total over $14-billion, with over 34,000 employees.

SIMSA is currently the only organization that represents suppliers that have a physical presence in Saskatchewan, with most also having their global headquarters in the province.

What we do

SIMSA supports, promotes, and represents the interests of Saskatchewan-based suppliers who serve large-scale industrial, mining, and energy businesses both in and out of province.

We actively market our members to procurement professionals through in-person events and via the Saskatchewan Supplier Database, working to increase sales, educate stakeholders, and advocate for the members and industries we serve.

We strive to engage members, their customers, government agencies, and other stakeholders to build sustainable, productive, and transparent relationships.
