Central Okanagan business and economic initiatives

Overview

Local food producers from the Okanagan region participated in the Grocery Innovations Canada trade show in Toronto to showcase products and pursue market expansion. This effort was supported by the Central Okanagan Economic Development Commission and Accelerate Okanagan, utilizing the Market Diversification Fund to assist with costs for reaching national and international buyers.

Following these expansion efforts, a media series was launched in the Central Okanagan to highlight the economic benefits of local holiday shopping. The initiative aims to demonstrate how community spending strengthens the regional economy and features local business owners across Kelowna, West Kelowna, Lake Country, and Peachland.
