Valley
Water was originally founded in 1990 as WPS by Murray & Gary Moore
People thought we were crazy trying to
sell bottled water here in Chilliwack. We were told that it would be
like trying to sell refrigerators to Eskimos.
We did some research and found 57 “boil
water” warnings in 1990 in B.C. that no one heard
about. Some were even in the lower mainland.
This originally got the idea started
and in the same year Murray & Gary Moore became partners with the
WPS franchise. There were very few bottled water companies at that
time so we made this our life long family business. Cary Moore
became the first manager and in 1992 Judy Moore came aboard to fill
the secretarial role.
The “boil
water” warnings in B.C. continued to rise to
around 250 a year by 1995 of which several were in the
Upper
Fraser Valley. We continued to grow in our customer
base and have nearly 1,000 clients to date.
The
company went through a time where we had an opportunity to be bought
out by the “big boys” but chose to remain independent. We didn’t
want our customers to become “just another number” so in June of
2002 WPS became Valley Water.
We continue to provide service to
Chilliwack, Hope, Agassiz & Harrison, and now due to the demand,
offer our services in Abbotsford.
Our company takes great pride in our
customer service, that’s why we still guarantee same day deliveries
(if called before 12:00) in which the bigger companies cannot
compete with. Valley Water makes that extra effort to make sure you
never run out of water. We also hold to a high standard to make sure
our customers receive the best product of premium bottled water.
Valley Water offers the best mix of
experience, service, and quality. That’s why we've been in business
since 1990. |
