135 Forge & Form Gala
Innovation isn’t born—it’s forged.
It takes pressure. purpose. precision.
To mark 135 years of legacy and leadership, Supply-Build Canada is proud to present its first-ever Innovation Awards Gala—Forge & Form, presented by Saint Gobain.
This unforgettable evening will honour the bold, the inventive, and the resilient—those forging what’s next in retail, manufacturing, and leadership with over 16 awards up for grabs.
Held in the iconic Fairmont Banff Springs on October 22nd, 2025 (Immediately following the 2025 Hardlines Conference), this is more than a celebration—it’s a memorable experience that recognizes strength, vision, and transformation.
Dress Code: Cocktail
Semi-formal, elegant attire that is more formal than everyday wear but less formal than black tie, striking a balance between fancy and comfortable.
