In Step - On Course 

Prince George is Northern British Columbia’s largest city, and the commercial and financial centre for B.C.’s resource-rich heartland. 

Located beside the picturesque Nechako and Fraser Rivers, the pioneer spirit is alive and well in this energetic city.   Surrounded by a resource-rich economy, our modern business community is adapting to the changing global economies - in step and on course. 

Colourful First Nations communities enhance traditions of the past with technology of the present.  Innovative education facilities, cultural priorities and progressive local government combine to create a synergy unlike any other. 

Located 800 scenic km north of Vancouver and a quick one-hour plane ride, Prince George is a prime location for business in North America. Here's why:

• Skilled, educated trade and technical workers—Major post-secondary institutions provide a large pool of labour and research.
• Inexpensive land and business costs—Total business costs are substantially lower than those in other North American cities of comparable size.
• Access to both North America and Asia Pacific markets—Major North American road, rail and air corridors lead through Prince George.  
• State-of-the-art telecommunications—Diverse fibre optic networks provide a fully redundant system with the latest in voice, data and Internet services.
• Abundant, reliable, affordable power—Some of the lowest electricity costs anywhere in North America.
• Quality of life like nowhere else—The best of Super, Natural British Columbia’s outdoors.
