Tsawwassen means "Land Facing the Sea". Known as the land of the sun, Tsawwassen gets three days of sunshine for every one in Vancouver. Its backdrop is equally spectacular with farm fields, B.C.'s coastal mountains, the Pacific Ocean and Washington State's Mount Baker all within view.

The commercial district of Tsawwassen along 56th Street and 12th Avenue is the heart of town, with over 250 businesses ranging from beautiful retail stores, a variety of professional services and fantastic restaurants and coffee shops. Unique and beautiful, Tsawwassen is the best kept secret in Vancouver's Lower Mainland!

History:

The Business Improvement Association (BIA) of Tsawwassen, was formed in January 1991 through the efforts of the Tsawwassen Business Association, a group of local business people.

In the early 90’s many BIA’s were created in the Province. Seeing the opportunities a BIA could bring to the community, the Tsawwassen Business Association petitioned its members and encouraged council’s endorsement to create the BIA of Tsawwassen. In January 1991 the association was officially formed.

Currently in its third, 5 year-term, the Tsawwassen BIA and its board continue to focus on business development, promotion and creating economic opportunities for its members. The Tsawwassen BIA has approximately 275 individual business members ranging from small retail owner-operated businesses to larger corporate entities like Canada Safeway, Thrifty Foods, Century Group and the Coast Tsawwassen Inn. Member breakdown is equal between the professional sector and retail/service sector. Visit our Membership Directory to search for a specific business or by categories.

We do this through co-op advertising programs, by beautifying the community with upgraded light fixtures and streetscaping, by liaising with the Mayor, Delta City Council, and tourist organizations, and by sponsoring special events that bring people downtown and keep things hopping!
