TRI-CITIES A-LIST 2026 · ELEVEN YEARS RUNNING

Character first. Skills second. Belts third.

Every one of those votes came from a parent. Taekwondo here is an investment in character, and the return shows up at home: homework started before dinner, eyes up when an adult is talking, the truth told when a lie would be easier. Port Moody has voted us its favourite martial arts studio every year since 2016, and Port Coquitlam for the last two.

Thank you for eleven years. We’ll keep earning it.

Port Moody

Port Moody

PORT MOODY IS

T

here’s something special about Port Moody. Surrounded by mountains, forests and the waters of Burrard Inlet, it’s a community that combines incredible natural beauty with a lively local spirit — and plenty of reasons to get out and explore. Live the Port Moody lifestyle. Walk the Shoreline Trail, spend an afternoon at Rocky Point Park, explore the waterfront or simply slow down and enjoy the scenery. Add a thriving arts and culture scene, community events and welcoming neighbourhoods, and it’s easy to understand why people love calling Port Moody home. Celebrate local. Port Moody’s businesses are a big part of what gives the city its personality. From Brewers Row and local restaurants to independent shops, cafés, professionals and service businesses, there’s creativity and entrepreneurial spirit around every corner. That’s what the A-LIST celebrates — the businesses, owners and teams that make our communities better. So grab a coffee, enjoy a local meal, browse a neighbourhood shop or discover somewhere new. Support local. Celebrate local. Because when Port Moody businesses thrive, so does the community around them. And that’s pretty awesome.

COQUITLAM IS C

oquitlam is a great place to call home boasting beautiful parks and trails, welcoming neighbourhoods, fantastic recreation, great schools and an amazing selection of places to shop, dine and explore. But what really makes Coquitlam awesome? The people and businesses behind our community. From the neighbourhood restaurant that knows your favourite order to the local shop that always goes the extra mile, our businesses bring energy, personality and opportunity to our city. They create jobs, support local teams and organizations, introduce us to new flavours and experiences, and help make our neighbourhoods feel like home. Coquitlam continues to grow and evolve, but the strong sense of community remains at its heart. And every time we choose a local restaurant, retailer, service or independently owned business, we’re helping to strengthen our community. So, let’s celebrate the entrepreneurs, owners and people who make our city special. Shop local. Dine local. Discover local. Support local. Because when Coquitlam businesses succeed, our entire community thrives. And that’s pretty AWESOME.

A conversation with

ERIN SCARLETT A

fter all the universe threw at her in the past seven years, it’s fair to say Erin Scarlett was due.

And while few will suggest the path that entrepreneurs follow is linear or easy, the gauntlet she and her husband Mike Arboit have had to traverse borders on extraordinary. In no particular order, the challenges the Port Moody couple have recently faced include: losing an established business space, moving back in with parents, making little to no money for half a decade and eating leftovers off paper plates. Throw in the birth of a first child somewhere in there too, all while navigating an unprecedented worldwide pandemic that decimated businesses the world over. But now is Scarlett’s time to shine.

And deservedly so. The 36-year-old co-founder of The Fountainhead Network (TFN) has been named this year’s recipient of the Tri-Cities Chamber business leader award. She’s been nominated several times in years past, leading Scarlett to think she’d always be a bridesmaid and never the bride. But the persistence that’s intrinsic in any small business owner paid off. “It was definitely very validating but I think I was more nervous not to get it because of all the work I’ve done in the community – I thought it has to be seen, it has to be noticed,” she said. “I think it’s an acknowledgement and recognition for the hard work that we’ve done and what we actually sacrificed to create a home for entrepreneurs.” ❱❱

WORDS: JOHN KURUCZ // IMAGES: ANDY WHITE

2026 ALIST TRI-CITIES 53


Tri Cities A launchpad for precisely that entrepreneurial spirit, TFN is a coworking and media space that’s home to creatives, white-collar types and all manner of businesses that need physical space. That the operation exists today is a bit of a Hail Mary. The groundwork and eventual launch initially took root in a neighbouring community just months before COVID-19 shuttered everything. That was strike one.

But rather than folding the tent, Scarlett helped pivot the business almost immediately. The company invested in podcast studios, media production and virtual programming to support local businesses that suddenly needed digital visibility. Arboit, meanwhile, interviewed more than 100 local businesses through their PoCommunity podcast. To keep the business alive, the couple made difficult personal sacrifices, including selling their home. That resilience paid off. The couple survived the pandemic, grew a loyal membership base and earned recognition as a trusted hub for entrepreneurs, creatives and small business owners across the Tri-Cities. Then came strike two. Rent and other costs shot up exponentially, forcing the couple’s hand to move further afield. That move to Port Moody happened in 2024 when the operation shifted into the 7,000-square-foot open-plan, workshare and co-working space known as Site B. Today, TFN operates its coworking and media side within Site B, while Site B has its own event and community operations. “Mike and I didn’t take a paycheck until last year. We’ve been in business for six years and we’ve been paying to keep the

54 ALIST TRI-CITIES 2026

business alive, but it’s about putting one foot in front of the other and learning to dance in the rain,” Scarlett said of the couple’s resolve. “It’s all about that forward momentum instead of the many times I wanted to be in the fetal position and cry.” Arboit and Scarlett have since become partners and co-owners in Site B, Brave Brewing and Twin Sails and it’s exactly that type of synergy that wins the day for all parties. Where past generations may have approached business with a cutthroat or

“IT’S ALL ABOUT THAT FORWARD MOMENTUM INSTEAD OF THE MANY TIMES I WANTED TO BE IN THE FETAL POSITION AND CRY.” ERIN SCARLETT

myopic mindset, collaboration is central to the TFN model. It may feel like the ethical thing to do, but it’s also a reflection of the business realities in 2026 where land costs are exorbitant and hiring talent can be tedious. When put in practice, picture the web developer who builds an online presence for an accountant who then checks the books in exchange. Or the lawyer who translates a legal document for other inkind services. It may sound cliched but it’s true. Teamwork does, in fact, make the dream work. “Hand me a hammer and I don’t know what to do with it. I can’t repair my space, I need my community to help me,” Scarlett said. “Once you are around these people all the time, you can actually see their work and their work ethic. And it makes headhunting a lot easier because you know your people and you trust them. You see that they will put in the time without a paycheck because they see the value of what we’re doing here.” ❚

The 25km Traboulay PoCo Trail winds past rivers, forests and neighbourhoods, while parks, playgrounds, bike paths and recreation facilities keep the community active and connected. Downtown, local shops, cafés, restaurants and community events add to PoCo’s welcoming, small-town feel. Celebrate local. Port Coquitlam is also a great place to do business. Local entrepreneurs, independent shops, restaurants and service providers help create jobs, support community organizations and give our city its unique personality. That’s what the A-LIST is all about — celebrating the businesses and people our community loves. So discover a new favourite, revisit an old one and keep supporting local. Every time you do, you’re helping Port Coquitlam remain a vibrant, connected and awesome place to call home.
