FEATURED CLIENTS

CAMPBELL RIVER AIRPORT

One of our most substantial projects was completing a business and marketing case for a runway extension that would accommodate corporate jets at Campbell River Airport (YBL), located on Vancouver Island. In fall 2009, YBL received $8.33 million in funding from the Government of British Columbia and the Government of Canada based on the business and marketing case we developed.

Over the course of the contract, we conducted extensive primary market research to identify deficiencies in YBL's Terminal Building, which lead to funding for facility improvements.

"On behalf of Mayor McDonell and members of Campbell River City Council I would like to thank you (Ross) and your colleagues for your informative and well-documented presentation to Council on June 3, 2008 regarding the Campbell River Airport (YBL) Marketing Plan and Runway Extension Business Case."

- Yours truly, Peter F. Wipper - Deputy City Clerk, City of Campbell River
