NANAIMO, B.C. (October 25, 2017) – VMAC has been named a finalist in the BC Export Awards' Manufactured Products category. The prestigious BC Export Awards are presented annually by the government of British Columbia and the B.C. Division of Canadian Manufacturers and Exporters. The Manufactured Products category recognizes companies that have built innovative systems or value-added components, machinery or equipment for industrial and commercial use. 

"We're proud to be nominated as a finalist for this award as it recognizes the efforts VMAC has made to expand our business globally," said Gord Duval, VMAC's vice president of marketing and sales. 

The BC Export Awards strive to celebrate BC's most successful and innovative exporters, and recognize the importance of exportation to the economic future of the province. VMAC manufactures air compressors and multipower systems in a 33,000 square foot facility in Nanaimo B.C., which recently grew to include an in-house foundry in 2016. The addition of the foundry is significant, as it allows VMAC to custom cast aluminum parts and brackets in small batches. Controlling each step in the manufacturing process ensures high quality products and a reduced time to market.

VMAC is a finalist in the Manufactured Products Category along with Kingfisher Boats and Packright Mfg. Ltd.
