There Has Never Been a Better Time to Invest in BC
2 out of every 5 business owners in rural and non-metropolitan BC is expected to exit their business in the next 5 years. It's a buyer's market with an abundance of choice and competitive offers throughout the province. At the same time the rising cost of living and its impact on quality of life in large urban centers is leading some residents to start looking for alternatives. We're here to set you up with the right tools and resources to become an entrepreneur and help you get started on your next big (ad)venture.

Doing Business in Unexpected Places
There are advantages to be had! When you buy a business in non-metro BC instead of starting new, the odds are in your favour! You have an automatic connection to customers and suppliers, plus local recognition and easier integration with the community's business resources and social environment. There's also:
- Less competition from other businesses and the chance to corner the market
- Shorter work commutes...or no commutes
- Affordable cost of living
- Good value for marketing (fewer providers, wider reach)
- Proximity to nature and the outdoors
- Living where your impact is felt and makes a difference
