We’re Here to Help

 

Community Futures Lakeland is a community-driven, non-profit organization staffed by local business professionals and guided by a local crew of volunteer Board of Directors, people just like you! 

We provide a wide range of small business services and business management tools for people wanting to start, expand, franchise, or sell a business. We run a number of specialized business programs, organize exciting business events, and actively work with community and business leaders to foster rural economic growth.

Our board consists of other business owners, municipal partners and local representatives who care about the growth and success of our community. 

Funded in Western Canada by Prairies Economic Development Canada, Community Futures has been supporting small business and rural economic diversification since 1986. There are 27 Community Futures offices in rural communities throughout Alberta, and a total of 267 across the country.

Our services for small businesses are designed to help Lakeland residents start, grow, expand, franchise, or sell their business.
