The City of Prince George has just announced that it has partnered with several business support organizations to launch the Support PG Business Survey.
This new survey will be a collaborative effort between the Prince George Chamber of Commerce, Community Futures Fraser-Fort George, BC Northern Real Estate Board, Downtown Prince George, Tourism Prince George, CHBA Northern BC and the Northern Regional Construction Association.
The goal of this survey is to better understand the needs of local businesses, identify various challenges and opportunities, and make sure that support is available to help businesses succeed across Prince George.
The city is encouraging local business to participate for the following reasons:
- Share insights into their business challenges, opportunities, and support needs.
- Connect directly with available business support resources
- Help business support agencies better understand the broader business landscape in Prince George and the region
All responses will be kept confidential and presented only in aggregate. The city also assures businesses that they and their partners will follow up with the businesses surveyed to share survey results, provide relevant resources, and identify any gaps in support.
Colleen Van Mook, executive director of Downtown Prince George, said many business owners are worried about the potential US tariffs. "With this survey, we really want to learn exactly how these tariffs might affect them and begin a conversation at a local level. Ultimately, we hope to find solutions that specifically work for Prince George," she said.
The survey will be sent to businesses from the participating organizations. For more information, or to access to the survey, contact [email protected].
