Description

Chatterson Janitorial Supplies Ltd. has been operating in Regina since Mel and Jyl Chatterson opened the doors in May of 1967. The Chatterson family has been involved in the distribution business ever since. The company was formed when Mel, Jyl and a partner by the name of Wally McMillan decided that they would create a new business suitably named Chatterson McMillan Co. Ltd. In 1969 Mel and Jyl bought the partner out and continued under the same name. Their son Garth Chatterson remembers the early days were operated from a small office in the Regent Park Shopping Center on Sherwood Drive in Regina. Garth remembers the hours spent by his parents as being long but everyone was satisfied. Mel was the sales force and Jyl was the office staff. They had soon outgrown the small office in Regent Park and moved into a larger facility on 8th Ave. They took on more help in the sales department and finally took on the Saskatchewan franchise rights to Michaels Equipment and chemicals. In 1970 they were on the move again and bought a company called Unit Supply and moved into a larger facility on 13th Ave. There they enjoyed more school business and more growth. Soon that facility was outgrown and they moved to the existing property on Dewdney Ave in 1973. It was at this time that Garth joined the company and helped out in the warehouse and delivery. Garth continued to learn the business with a hands on approach and continued through on sales...
