The City wants to help meet the needs of local businesses!

From April 22 to May 18, 2025, the City, with support from Deloitte Canada, conducted a telephone and email survey to better understand the top priorities and plans of local businesses and how business owners/managers view the community as a place to do business.

Businesses were randomly selected to participate but were given the opportunity to "opt-in" to the Business Retention and Expansion survey. Thank you to everyone who took part. 

The information from the survey will be used to plan future economic development activities focused on the top priorities of local businesses. 

For more information on this survey or how Economic Development can support your business, contact Amanda MacDonald, Economic Development Officer, at amacdonald@stalbert.ca.
