Why Expansion?

In today’s volatile political and economic environment, one of the basics of responsible business management – diversification – is crucially important.

Canada is a country struggling with a difficult economic environment and a fair bit of political chaos.

But Canada is fortunate to be a country rich in resources, human and natural, and a country that is so large it provides easy access to the entire US, the Far East and Europe.

So what does this mean for Canadian companies looking for options and opportunities within North America? How can they offset some of the hardships resulting from US tariffs, high costs of energy and transportation, labor shortages and more?

Luckily for Canadian business, because of the expanse of the country, the unique qualities and advantages in each province, looking beyond their current location can often companies offer new opportunities, cost savings and open new markets.

It is in this context that Pathway Group, has opened a new practice area. We have begun to offer our clients and prospects assistance and support in expanding their Ontario-based businesses into the Canadian West and the United States.

Alberta and the US both have a long history of supporting and rewarding entrepreneurship.

Alberta is a province with several strong industries including agriculture, energy, natural resources, forestry and technology.

The US is the economic powerhouse of the world.

It is important that Alberta continues to diversify and to provide services to the existing industries.

And it is important to Canada to grow and tend its longstanding relationship with the US, while diversifying trade partnerships for the long term.

Benefits can include reduced cost of transportation to the west of Canada and the Asia Pacific region, and reduced punishment from US tariffs.

If a company wishes to do business in Western Canada or the US, now is the time to plan and execute!

The province of Alberta has expressed a strong interest in supporting new businesses with incentives, such as grants, tax breaks and other opportunities. Each business would have a tailor-made solution for their entry into the Alberta economy.

And the US is very interested in creating jobs inside its borders. Incentives and assistance will be easy to obtain.
