Paul Zanette was raised in Prince George and today operates a successful design company with customers from across North America.
“After living in larger centres such as Vancouver and Boston, I chose to return home to Prince George and start my business here. It is opportunity and quality of life combined with urban amenities and four-season beauty of the north that make Prince George an easy choice” says Paul.
Paul says Prince George provides that excellent balance not only in quality of lifestyle but also at a more tangible and affordable level. “We have projects all over North America but we are based in Prince George out of choice, not necessity. It is due to our location here that we have built a creative and successful business servicing clients all over BC, Alberta, Ontario and in the US.”
From small companies that are technology driven to larger corporations that serve the resource sector, Prince George is a great place for business. An educated workforce, competitive costs of business, excellent access to markets through intermodal connections, and quality of life for employees are the greatest features. Now, growth in transportation, mining, oil and gas, and value-added forestry are creating new opportunities for business in Prince George, fueling a surge in investment and expansion here. Prince George's economy is diversifying as a result of these new opportunities, and a persistent energy to seize them.
