The City of Parksville is one of the fastest-growing areas on Vancouver Island.

Parksville’s main industries are tourism, retail, services, construction and light industry.

Qualicum Beach, BC remains a mix of agricultural, primary, manufacturing and service industries.

The trade sector, which includes both retail and wholesale trade, accounted for 20.5% of overall employment and reflects the growing trend for Qualicum Beach to become the central retail hub of mid Vancouver Island.
