The West Vancouver Chamber of Commerce's 2007 President's Dinner and Business Excellence Awards was held last week at the Capilano Golf and Country Club. Newly elected board members were introduced before guests enjoyed a lavish buffet dinner. Afterwards, the business awards were handed out to Y. Franks Appliances, as business of the year, and Wendy and Robert Harrington, of West Van Florist, were awarded the Citizen(s) of the Year honour.
Also last week, North Shore realtor Karim Virani announced his newest business at the Pacific Pallisades Hotel. Importing luxury goods and items ranging from jets to art and cars, he and his staff entertained exhibitors and invited guests at a special launch event.
