Maple Ridge is making moves to be B.C.’s investment destination of choice

With a well-connected and growing population, Maple Ridge is business-ready.

At the heart of British Columbia’s Lower Mainland and Fraser Valley regions, Maple Ridge is boldly building a city where businesses can thrive and people can live, work, invest and explore in their own backyard and beyond. The home of the q̓ic̓əy̓ (Katzie) and qʼʷa:n̓ƛʼən̓ (Kwantlen) First Nations since Time Immemorial, Maple Ridge is a place with a rich history and boundless opportunities.

From the rugged beauty of Golden Ears Park with one million plus annual visits, to the waters of the majestic Fraser River, Maple Ridge is brimming with spectacular scenery and unique experiences. As the fourth highest volume filming location in B.C., hundreds of major movies and TV productions like Virgin River, Tracker, Reacher, Goosebumps and more have called ‘Action!’ in Maple Ridge.

Home to more than 106,000 residents (projected to be 150,000 by 2045), and with more than 11 million people less than a day’s drive away, Maple Ridge is a prime location for businesses looking to serve an affluent, mobile and globally connected population.

Businesses in Maple Ridge have access to two international airports (YVR, YXX), a nearby full-service regional airport (YPK), one of North America’s closest ports to Asia (Port of Vancouver), two intermodal rail terminals and four border crossings into the United States—all within a one-hour drive.

The City of Maple Ridge is a business-ready community that unleashes the energy and creativity of residents, visitors and businesses alike. It’s working hard to improve the customer experience, invest in technology and modernize city processes and services to meet the needs of a diverse and dynamic population.

Maple Ridge is bold by nature, driven by community and a city on the move. Make Maple Ridge your investment destination of choice. We can show you how.
