MADE IN BC: BUSINESS MEMBER SPOTLIGHT

Proudly supporting local businesses.

FEATURED MEMBER: THE DUBH GLAS DISTILLERY

Years as owner and chief spirits officer of The Dubh Glas Distillery in Oliver, B.C., has taught Grant Stevely to adapt and find creative solutions when problems arise.

When the demand for hand sanitizer started surging, Grant pivoted operations to supply this essential product to the Okanagan community, including our teams at Valley First.
