Doing Business - Business Attraction & Retention

Village of Chase
Commercial Opportunities


The commercial options for Chase are plentiful and varied.
We have a revitalized downtown core which underwent a beautification in 2006 with gardens, poster/hanging basket light stands, benches, and brick paving.

The building styles include new, refaced, heritage and small strip malls to combine for an impressive mix. Exciting new construction is slated for 2010 with Peoples Drug Mart leading the way. 

Month to month rental or lease options are available with the occasional opportunity to purchase. Many commercial buildings in the downtown core have residential suites above or behind to supplement income or provide a combination living/working space. Lease rates vary with smaller spaces renting in the $350.00 - $850.00 range including all utilities, up to $10 - $14 per sqft. Triple Net

Several of our major commercial spaces have been rebuilt or renovated recently with the Chase Plaza presently undergoing a major revamping. As a result additional space may come available in the $6.00- $12.00 per square foot range. 

There is at present bare land available to lease or buy with build to suit options in the C3 zoning locations. Chase offers a Light Industrial zoning which is in high demand.

Community Futures Development Corporation of Thompson Country (CFTC) sponsored the updating of the Community Profile for the Village of Chase plus Electoral Area C (South Shuswap) and Electoral Area F (North Shuswap) of the Columbia Shuswap Regional District plus the area running westward from Chase along the Trans Canada Highway (Highway #1) to Pritchard. 

 
The purpose of the economic profile is to provide timely, objective and relevant economic information to assist individuals contemplating economic development initiatives in the “Chase Trading Area” including investors exploring new business or the expansion of existing business opportunities.

The profile includes statistics and information on a variety of economic variables including, but not limited to, demographics, income, business, labour, education and employment, infrastructure, government services, quality of life and key contacts.
