Fabrication Apprentice – Custom Millwork
Build Your Career. Build Work That Gets Seen.
MJY Fabrication Inc. builds high-end custom environments, museum-quality display cases, architectural millwork, retail fixtures, and brand activations across Canada and the United States.
Our work has been featured in major shopping centres, cultural institutions, and high-profile public spaces. We've built premium retail environments, custom exhibits, architectural installations, and even contributed specialized fabrication work on the roller coaster carts at Playland in Vancouver.
