Business World Magazine - July 2022

JULY 2022

Dear Reader, Welcome to the July 2022 edition of Business World Magazine. People play an important part in any business. They’re the lifeblood, those integral parts that come together with a collective purpose: to make your company a success. In this issue, we tip our hats to the efforts of companies all over North America who appreciate and acknowledge the importance of unity and teamwork. From family-owned operations to global leaders in the industry, it starts and ends with people. Our cover story for this month is Paragon Metals. A global supplier of high-value, highly-engineered precision-machined components for the automotive and other industrial markets, the Hillsdale, Michigan-based business has experienced strong and steady growth for more than 20 years thanks to the unrivaled dedication and skill of the people. As the Vice President of Sales and Marketing, Tom Nichols took us inside the doors of Paragon, sharing stories of the growth, accolades and key people who helped the company turn a corner in innovation. Connected and committed, the Isle of Mann Group is reinforcing their reputation as a company doing things their way. Their vision, insightfulness and influence are stretching beyond borders of construction and home building. Based in Surrey, British Columbia with a presence in Alberta, Project Manager Rick Mann is building strength, character and closeness with the crew on the front lines. We caught up with Mann and learned an important lesson: it’s not just about making a profit at Isle of Mann. It’s about giving back, too. Synonymous for unsurpassed value and craftsmanship DVL Homes has been putting their clients and the environment first since 2004. Based out of Surrey, DVL is a leader and innovator in sustainable practices. Committed to the green movement, Owner Nick Dosanjh’s aggressive and progressive approach to energy efficiency and sustainability was spurred on by exceeding expectations of their savvy clientele. Leveraging traditional customer service tactics like personal interaction and driven by loyal and long-term bonds, DVL Homes is building homes that reflect you. Putting people first is what led Erik Jensen, President of Sprucehill Contracting, to swap his computer science degree for life on a construction site. Committed to integrity, professionalism and a detail oriented approach to home building, the company blends the form and function of construction with a care factor that has gone from a labour of love into a highly motivated and passionate workforce that is dedicated to providing the best experience possible. We’ve got much more waiting to be explored inside the July 2022 edition of Business World Magazine. Thanks for joining us. See you in August!
