Multi-Year Acquisition Plan Sees Comprehensive, Turn-Key Services Model Enter NTX and WTX Markets

DALLAS/FORT WORTH (June 3, 2025) – Today, CAVIS Energy (“CAVIS”) officially launched in the U.S. market, bringing industry-leading, relationship-driven energy services to key regions. With an established client base in Dallas-Fort Worth, Odessa/Midland, and Carlsbad, New Mexico, CAVIS (kay-vis) is powered by 135 skilled tradespeople, unified by a shared mission and vision for growth.

The company’s launch follows a series of strategic expansions, beginning with Hoffmann Family of Companies' ("HF Companies") March 2024 acquisition of CDN Controls—Western Canada’s leading provider of electrical and instrumentation, automation, renewable energy, and major construction services. This acquisition laid the foundation for expanding into new global markets, starting with the U.S.

In December 2024, CDN and HF Companies acquired Superior Optimization, a proven energy services operation with a well-established presence in Texas and New Mexico. This acquisition enabled a seamless market entry, and over the past seven months, business processes have been aligned, growth strategies developed, and CDN’s global brand has been introduced as CAVIS Energy.

CAVIS will provide solutions to the upstream (Production), midstream and renewables/solar energy segments as well as utilities & infrastructure, materials manufacturing, water and wastewater, and the industrial construction & engineering sectors. CAVIS will deliver nine (9) core services to the market:

• Electrical maintenance;
• Major construction;
• Automation;
• Automation engineering;
• Communications and fiber optics;
• Panel fabrication;
• Measurement;
• Combustion & emissions reduction; and
• Renewable/solar services. 

“The launch of CAVIS Energy today marks a defining moment in our journey to build the industry leader in energy services—a distinction achievable in the U.S. market—and beyond,” shared Dean Fraser, CEO, CDN & CAVIS Energy. “What will unfold for CAVIS is the replication of CDN’s proven client-focused, high-performing, and values-driven approach in action. We are ready to deliver exceptional value across a dynamic energy landscape. Today’s announcement is more than an entry into the U.S. market—it’s the beginning of a long-term commitment to bold vision, partnership and sustainable growth that extends beyond borders.”

Geoff Hoffmann, Co-CEO at HF Companies, said: "From the outset, we knew CDN’s success model could be replicated in the U.S. market—it was never a question of ‘if’ but ‘when.’ At Hoffmann Family of Companies, we are intentional about investing in businesses with proven excellence and scaling them to new heights. This is what we do. Strong companies don’t just survive, they thrive—and we help them grow by providing resources, strategy, and leadership to accelerate their impact.”

He continued: “Now is the perfect time to enter the U.S. energy sector, and the momentum we’ve built through strategic acquisitions puts us in a position to drive industry-leading solutions. We are energized by the opportunities ahead and excited for what CAVIS Energy will accomplish in the coming years.”
