Bill's focus is to find superior, safer, and more cost effective ways to satisfy his customers.
In 2010 Bill finished in the top three for the Small Business leader of the year award by the Edmonton Chamber of Commerce and was nominated for 2010 National Philanthropy Day awards. Bill has been an Alberta's Promise Partner since 2009 for the support he provides to children's charities in Alberta.
