THE CONCEPT
The Alberta iMarket concept originated in a desire to promote regional, and rural, products and services to both a local, and a larger market. While many entities promote the businesses themselves, we had a desire to take it a step further and create a fully ecommercial platform where all forms of products and services could be presented.
