Economic Development Strategic Plan

Economic development in Campbell River is focused on building a foundation built on best practices. This includes:

  • business retention, expansion and recovery
  • business attraction
  • workforce development

With this foundation, we have been able to complete the strategic planning process in house. Through this process, we have leveraged out connections within the community, undertaking extensive public sector and stakeholder consultation.

For community economic development to be successful, it needs focus over time on improvements working toward common goals. We've included a mix of short-term and longer-term strategies in the economic development strategic plan. These strategies are designed to improve economic development performance in each of these areas, building upon the current activities the City undertakes.
