Who we are
Cori Schmidt - Visionary Founder and Owner of Shmitty's Shwabbin
Cori Schmidt, the driving force behind Shmitty’s Shwabbin Ltd’s remarkable journey, sowed the seeds of success in the mid-90s with just a swab rig and a vision for unparalleled excellence.

Under Cori’s steadfast leadership, Shmitty’s Shwabbin Ltd has thrived, boasting an impressive fleet comprising over 60 units, 24 trailers, and an extensive inventory of 30-plus attachments. The company’s commitment to innovation is evident in its diverse range of services, including steamers, pull tractors, snow plows, snow blowers, skid steers, winch trucks, pickers, hot shot services, lease reclamation, end dumps, and graders.
Beyond the business arena, Cori takes pleasure in racing in street stock at the local raceway during the summer and, in the winter, enjoys the thrill of mountain sledding. Born and raised in the Kindersley, SK area, Cori remains deeply rooted in the local community, embodying a commitment to both professional success and community engagement.
