Dissan Group acquires Tanshaw Sanitation, a Distributor of Janitorial Supplies
Montreal, March 27, 2026 – Dissan Group, a national leader in the distribution of janitorial supplies and equipment in Canada, is proud to announce the acquisition of Tanshaw Sanitation Inc. (“Tanshaw”), a company based in Welland, Ontario. Tanshaw is recognized for its strong regional presence and specialized expertise in the distribution of cleaning supplies and equipment for residential, commercial, and institutional customers across the Golden Horseshoe.
This acquisition marks an exciting new chapter for Dissan Group in Ontario. “Tanshaw has been part of the Dissan family for many years as a member-distributor and has served as a strong ambassador in Ontario, helping to expand our regional presence and strengthen our market reach.” said Alex Trudel, President and Chief Executive Officer of Dissan Group. “Ron and Shawna’s leadership and expertise are highly respected across our organization, and welcoming their team into the Group represents a meaningful continuation of a long-standing and successful collaboration.”
For Ron and Shawna Hubert, co-owners of Tanshaw, the decision to join Dissan was driven by the desire to ensure continuity and long-term stability for the business.
“Joining Dissan felt like the right decision for Tanshaw,” said Ron Hubert, “We share similar values and ways of operating, our product offering is closely aligned, and this transaction supports the long-term interests of both our employees and our customers.”
As part of this transition, Ron and Shawna Hubert will remain actively involved in Tanshaw’s day-to-day operations, working closely with their team, and will play key roles in supporting Dissan Group’s continued growth.
This acquisition is part of a broader series of strategic initiatives driven by an ambitious vision: building a strong national network that meets the industry’s highest standards. After completing three major acquisitions in 2024, Dissan Group continued its growth momentum in 2025 with two acquisitions in the second half of the year, followed by two acquisitions in early 2026. Dissan Group is pursuing its growth trajectory, achieving continued success in its target markets, attracting new distributor members, accelerating strategic acquisitions, and seizing new opportunities to expand its presence and reach.
