Central Park Business Centre’s alliance with 5 other owner-operated business centres to form élite Business Centres occurred in 1998. élite is a marketing umbrella for our 6 businesses that cover the Vancouver Lower Mainland :
- Offices in the Marine Building (Downtown)
- MPS Executive Suites (West Broadway)
- Lake City Business Centre (Burnaby) NEW!
- North Road Office Services (East Burnaby)
- Headquarters Office Services (Coquitlam)
In addition to cross referrals, élite provides value-added services for clients of each of the 6 centres. The partnership allows clients from any centre to make use of facilities and services at the other locations, using the central invoicing from their home branch. In other words, you may use your boardroom allowance not only at Central Park Business Centre, but at any of the above locations. Several of our clients take advantage of this added benefit of having boardroom facilities in other locations.
In our first year a joint ¾-page ad was test-marketed in the Telus Pages directory. Based on the huge success created by the larger presence, we decided to continue and expand the élite profile. Other élite initiatives have included Business in Vancouver Magazine articles, advertisements and trade shows.
In 2009 our newly-designed Web site was launched: http://www.eliteoffices.com/.
You will be well-serviced by choosing any of the owner-operated élite Business Centres!
