About.
Ela Hultsi is a 100% Indigenous-owned supplier of commercial products.
We’re part of the Des Nedhe Group of Companies, an English River First Nation company.
We work with established manufacturers and distribution partners to supply janitorial and cleaning products, commercial flooring and lighting, and to offer recruiting and HR tools for employers.
Our partners make and distribute the products. We bring them together in one place: one account, one point of contact and one purchase order.
For organizations with Indigenous procurement goals, buying through Ela Hultsi puts that spend with a CCIB Certified Indigenous Business.
