CEO Addison Parfeniuk shares how he went from a 21-year-old franchise helper to leading one of Canada's largest moving companies, and why safety culture and community giving define Two Small Men.
Addison Parfeniuk is the CEO of Two Small Men with Big Hearts Moving, where he has helped transform a well-known regional brand into one of Canada’s largest and most trusted moving companies. Originally from Winnipeg, Addison’s journey with the company began in 2011 when, at just 21 years old, he joined a friend’s Edmonton franchise while studying at the University of Winnipeg. What started as a hands-on introduction quickly evolved into a long-term vision for growth, leadership, and impact.
Over the years, Addison played a key role in expanding the business by acquiring additional franchises and ultimately purchasing the franchisor, bringing the brand under a unified national strategy. Today, he leads a company that operates coast to coast, serving thousands of customers each year.
Under Addison’s leadership, Two Small Men has become known not only for its operational excellence but for its industry-leading safety culture and strong commitment to community giving. By investing in employees, improving systems, and donating a portion of profits and services to local organizations, he has built a company rooted in both performance and purpose. For Addison, success is about more than growth. It is about creating a company that supports its people and gives back to the communities it serves.
