CHILLIWACK, B.C.—
For Gord and Alisa Gelderman, no year was more challenging for their family-owned Minuteman Press in Chilliwack than the last year . Because printing was classified as an essential business, Gord and Alisa were able to remain open and operating throughout the COVID-19 pandemic. By supporting other local businesses at such a critical time, Gord and Alisa were able to rebound from the initial onslaught of the once-in-a-lifetime pandemic and grow their sales significantly by the end of 2020.The Chillwack location is now a members of the
Minuteman Press International President’s Million-Dollar Circle for achieving yearly gross sales of at least $1 million. This is especially impressive since they achieved record sales for their 23-year business despite the initial challenges of Covid-19. Gord also credits the support and solidarity among the small business community for being able to grow during the pandemic.
Minuteman Press in Chilliwack has been operating since 1998 and was first operated by Alisa’s father Henry. Gord and Alisa officially took over the business when Henry retired in 2016. The community ties they have built as a family business for 23 years have also been a huge help to continuing to thrive despite the pandemic.
