When Jennifer Irvine bought Nature's Wonders Florist in 2004, it was a small flower shop in Vancouver. Less than a decade later, it has grown exponentially with several national websites under its umbrella. Nature's Wonders delivers flowers across North America and dominates online sales in the industry.
To support this rapid growth, Vancity provided Jenn with an initial line of credit and a few years later with an extension so she could continue to build her business.
"Knowing this was her dream, I was happy to offer advice that helped her progress and get stronger," says Douglas Paillé, Vancity account manager. "Our goal at Vancity is to support women entrepreneurs by helping them make successful business choices."
