Business Walk
What is Business Walk?
During the week of June 10-14th, 2024, business and community leaders visited local businesses and organizations throughout our city in the Mission Chamber's 8th Annual Business Walk.
This year's Business Walk was followed by a Business Q&A Forum with the Mayor & Council in attendance to answer questions and listen to the business community's concerns. The event was free and open to all Mission businesses.
The Business Walk demonstrates the power of in-person interactions in an increasingly digital age by facilitating face-to-face conversations. These interactions give us a snapshot of the challenges and successes businesses have had through the year and their hopes and dreams for the future. The Business Walk is a Chamber-led initiative that was designed to complement economic development efforts in Mission.
This report contains data for the entire community as well as breaking it down into nine specific business areas.
- Downtown core
- The Junction Shopping Centre
- London/Beatty/Mission Way
- Glasgow/Horne/Waterfront
- Lougheed East (Fruits & Greens/Lougheed Motors to FreshCo – not including Rexall)
- Cedar Corridor (Rexall/Prospera malls up to Dewdney)
- Lougheed West (Starbucks/Best Western to Outlook Village)
- Silverdale-Silver Creek industrial
- Heritage Park/Home-Based, & Other
The final report is the compilation of data from individual businesses, and what emerges is the collective voice of the business community. This annual report informs local stakeholders on business challenges, the need for strategic resource allocation, in addition to economic achievements.
The program is powered by the Mission Regional Chamber of Commerce in partnership with the City of Mission, the Mission Record, WorkBC Mission, the Mission Downtown Business Association, Community Futures North Fraser, What's On Mission Magazine, and other local stakeholders and volunteers.
