Alan and Eileen Ford, Runway Cafe - Pitt Meadows is the hidden gem of Metro Vancouver. It's a strategic location for those that work all over the Lower Mainland. It's also well connected to Metro Vancouver's major industrial and commercial centres. Best of all it offers residents a small town rural feel with plenty of parks and nature.
Jeff Slater, Slater Industrial Supply - Pitt Meadows through the Economic Development Corporation seem to really care about the concerns of small business. I am glad I chose to relocate my business here. A beautiful area and if developed properly, keeping the environment in mind it could be a showpiece of the Lower Mainland.
Greg Peppler, Winston Roland Limited -
Thanks so much for organizing the tree display! We had a great time putting together our tree and we look forward to doing it even better next year! We even got some business from having our tree seen!
Again, thanks for a great opportunity to showcase our business, as a small,
new business, it was invaluable!

Russ Yazdgerdian, Meadows Cleaners - “I appreciate the small town atmosphere in Pitt Meadows. The people are friendly and are very health conscious. There is a loyalty in the community towards supporting local business.”
