Celebrating their 40th anniversary this year, Midland Appliance has been named the 2024 Large Business of the Year for their impressive growth, resilience and strong community engagement.
Midland Appliance is a leading provider of appliances, offering a wide range of products and services for retail customers, designers and home builders.
Despite supply chain disruptions and uncertain economic conditions, the company has achieved five consecutive years of growth, driven by a commitment to customer relationships, employee retention and community engagement.
From a single showroom with Maytag appliances to showcasing 60+ appliance brands across four locations, Midland has seen a passionate evolution through the decades.
This evolution has included developing its four unique divisions that provide retail service, service to professional designers and specialized support for single and multi-family home builders.
To support this development, Midland has seen exponential growth in its roster of employees and reach into community partnerships. It has steadily gained a reputation as both a leader in community fundraising initiatives and as a trusted employer.
Many of Midland's current staff carry decades-long tenures of service at the company.
Unchanged, however, is the signature of excellence it was founded on in 1984.
Midland's first owner Tom Hleucka was not shy about embracing every role in its first B.C. location.
From stocking, sweeping to greeting guests, Tom ran Midland with a gusto that has become a mainstay in Midland's philosophy.
That same passion and excellence is Midland's guarantee to customers visiting any of their showrooms today.
