When it comes to choosing a staffing agency, results speak louder than promises. In a competitive hiring landscape, St. Catharines employers need a staffing partner that delivers not just people but real performance. That’s why more and more businesses across the Niagara region turn to Consortium Staffing, one of the best staffing agencies in St. Catharines, for fast, flexible, and effective workforce solutions.
1. Local Manufacturer Boosts Productivity
A food packaging company located in St. Catharines was facing a mojor chronic staffing shortage that caused several missed production targets and high overtime costs. Consortium Staffing jumped in and supplied 15 vetted general laborers and machine operators within 72 hours. This solution filled all roles in just three business days, boosted production by 40%, reduced overtime expenses by over 25%, and even led to six temporary workers being hired permanently.
“We’ve worked with national agencies before, but none delivered like Consortium. They’re local, fast, and really care about our success.”
— Operations Manager
2. Construction Firm Fills Critical Skilled Trade Roles
As the prime contractor on a new commercial project, Niagara decided on a tight schedule and needed subcontracted licensed trades, which sent a distress signal to Consortium. Using its skilled trades network, Consortium presented the contractor with three carpenters and four electricians, all certified and referenced locally. With the advanced crew, the project started on schedule and remained on schedule the entire first 90 days, resulting in the absence of all employees. This made the contractor extend the partnership for the new projects.
s.“Consortium saved our project. Their tradespeople were professional, reliable, and ready from day one.”
— Project Coordinator
3. Long-Term Care Facility Builds Reliable Admin Team
A privately run elder care clinic in St. Catharines was facing high turnover and inconsistent performance in its front-desk and admin roles, impacting both patients and workflow. Consortium Staffing conducted a needs assessment and promptly matched the company with four skilled hires a receptionist, billing assistant, records clerk, and scheduler. Within a week the team was fully staffed, retention improved, patient intake became 30% faster, and the clinic was able to expand its services with stronger admin support.
“They didn’t just fill roles they helped stabilize our entire office. Consortium is now our go-to for every admin hire.”
— Clinic Administrator
4. Warehouse Meets Holiday Demand Without Overtime
A major logistics hub in St. Catharines faced a threefold surge in holiday shipping, and last year’s approach had caused burnout and delays. Consortium solved this by rolling out a phased hiring plan for general laborers, forklift operators, and packers, making sure the entire team was trained and ready ahead of peak season. The result: 25 workers onboarded in just 10 days, no missed deliveries, no overtime, and management called it their smoothest holiday season yet.
“Consortium made our peak season effortless. Every worker they sent was punctual, prepared, and productive.”
— Warehouse Supervisor
