Grand Forks, BC – Community Futures Boundary is pleased to announce a strategic partnership with Export Navigator, a program managed by Community Futures British Columbia (CFBC) and available across all 34 Community Futures regions in the province.
Export Navigator is designed to help businesses in British Columbia diversify and grow by providing expert guidance throughout the export process. In light of recent tariffs and counter-tariffs impacting trade, it is more critical than ever for businesses in the Boundary region to access support for expanding into new markets—both regionally and internationally.
From a Boundary-specific perspective, the Export Navigator program offers businesses in the region access to a dedicated Export Navigator advisor. This advisor provides tailored guidance on navigating international trade, identifying opportunities, and overcoming potential barriers to exporting. Through personalized support, businesses can explore new revenue streams and remain competitive in an evolving economic environment. Information sessions are available both online and in-person, and our Export Advisor is available to meet clients across the Boundary region.
“Community Futures Boundary is committed to helping local businesses succeed,” said Jennifer Wetmore, General Manager of Community Futures Boundary. “Offering access to the Export Navigator program is a vital step in ensuring our entrepreneurs have the resources they need to adapt, respond, and potentially grow in the face of recent challenges. With expert guidance available right here in our region, businesses can confidently explore new markets and expand their reach.”
In addition to the Export Navigator program, Community Futures Boundary continues to offer a wide range of business services, including business planning, advisory support, and quick-turnaround business loans.
