The Surrey Board of Trade is actively updating members and the business community/service organizations on supports.
I was just on a call with the Federal Ministry of Small Business, Export Promotion and International Trade – and have been sending many economic concerns and initiative ideas to both the Prime Minister’s office and to the BC Finance Minister.
I urge you to email me on issues that you are facing so that the Surrey Board of Trade can connect you to the help that you need. We have invoked Ground Zero Principles to help businesses. anita@businessinsurrey.com

The situation is moving and fluid. We want to ensure that employers and their workforces can be sustained and supported in Surrey’s diverse economy, for businesses and for not for profits.
