Show theme: IT’S A PARTY

WELCOME TO CANWEST 2013 This year marks a very special milestone as the BC Landscape & Nursery Association is celebrating 60 years. It was in May of 1953, when the foundation of today’s association was laid and BC’s ornamental horticulture trade took its first steps in working cooperatively for the betterment of the industry.

CanWest was already in the making in the early years of the association as the annual convention featured an exhibit component. However, it was in 1981 that the inaugural “Western Canada Horticultural Trade Show” took place in July at the Pacific National Exhibition Food Building.

CanWest, now in its 32nd year, continues to be a strong regional show providing suppliers from throughout BC and North America to showcase their products and services to landscapers, garden centres and wholesale nursery growers from the Pacific Northwest. And just as the association began connecting horticulturists 60 years ago, CanWest continues to do the same; facilitating “face to face” trade between buyers and sellers.

This show guide provides you with all the show highlights and features. Be sure to take in all that CanWest has to offer… including the Tailgate Party on opening day and a chance to win $1,000 cash!

On behalf of the CanWest team and the BCLNA Board of Directors, we warmly welcome you to Vancouver and Western Canada’s premier horticulture trade show! It’s going to be a party!

Promote your business Your BCLNA membership provides exclusive opportunities to promote your business.

Manage challenging issues BCLNA effectively manages important issues that affect the industry and are too complex for individual companies to handle on their own where pests, municipal, provincial and federal regulations, or urban and rural environmental factors are at stake.

Membership also gives you access to national actions by the Canadian Nursery Landscape Association. njoy events for pleasure and profit E Joining BCLNA is your invitation to great events that bring personal satisfaction and business benefits.

Garden Designs By Jo Thompson Jo Thompson, Jo Thompson Garden Design, Kent, England In this keynote presentation, Jo Thompson, one of the UK’s top landscape designers, will take you through her design process.

Ranging from small town gardens to large country estates, Jo’s design process takes in location and lifestyle, and, combined with a deep understanding of the client’s brief, results in gardens that are wonderful to engage with and stunning to observe.

Are Your Proposals Ruining Your Sales and Profits?

PRESHOW EVENT

Show Your Professionalism in Every Proposal Joe Salemi, Marketing Manager, DynaSCAPE Software Corp, Burlington, Ontario Compare the benefits of including jawdropping 3D virtual tours in your sales pitch, versus a hand-drawn-quality 2D black and white plan view and/or a stunning 2D colour rendered plan view.

Plus, catch a glimpse of the new version of SketchUp Pro 2013.
