Welcome to Mellor and Scott Local Business Association

We are an association made up of local businesses from various communities worldwide.  Coming together, with associate chapters located in many major centers around the world, we foster the connections and networks within local business communities to support one another, to share resources, to engage in business relationships, and to promote and uphold one another, while enhancing the communities in which they live and serve. 

We encourage small to mid size local businesses, who are wanting to build connections in this way, to reach out to us.  We have many local businesses in various communities.  And we can find you a chapter where you can build on your networking with other business owners.  If you want, you can also submit a request to start a chapter in your area, if need be.  

Lets work together to build a thriving community of local businesses in your area.  And bring business owners together to grow together!

Welcome Our Newest Members!

Our Annual Membership Dues will be mailed out to all of our members as of June 30 2020.  For Mellor and Scott to continue to provide Local Business Awards, we count on these dues.  And we appreciate your continued memberships!

Please join us in welcoming a new member into our midst!  Martin Davis has joined our midst, coming from Edmonton, Alberta and is looking forward to making connections and networking with the Edmonton Chapter.  Martin is heading up a junk removal service and has been busy acquiring additional equipment.  Recently he has expanded his original operation to include dumpster rentals and is looking forward to growing his operation to meet the demands in and around Edmonton.

Another newcomer to our community is Bull Dog Hydrovac.  Company owner, Rick Dubeau, says that his team of operators are ready and willing to assist in any excavation projects you may have on the go or coming up.  His company does day lighting, slot trenching, pole setting, pile setting, tank clean outs, and other services offered by means of hydrovac truck service.  Multiple trucks on the go help his company be in more and more locations, working hard in the community.  Welcome aboard!  We wish you great success here and everywhere!

Here we Grow Again!  Say hello to a new member this year - Edmonton Appliance Repair.  It is with great pleasure we welcome Brian Lestington and his team of technicians to our family.  His team is busy making sure that all home owners in his area are well serviced when it comes to appliance repair in Edmonton.  Welcome to your new chapter here and we wish you much success in the future!

A new look for a new year!

As you may have already noticed, our website looks a bit different!  This is because we are working diligently to roll out this new site, which will allow us to cut administrative costs and save funds.  We will be bringing back all of our prior features, upcoming events, and award photos as we work through the development stage of this site.  We would like to send out a great big THANK YOU for all of our talented members who are assisting in this project, along with running their own businesses and websites.  Our members are truly amazing and supportive!

Congrats to Wear Parts Canada for their Chapter Award!

Team work, dedication, and commitment to a vision has definitely paid off for our member, Wear Parts Canada.  The future is indeed looking bright for this company!  Plans for expansion into other locations are in the works and growth is on the horizon.  Their Chapter Associated Members voted in favor of awarding Wear Parts Canada the "Rising Star" award recently at a chapter meeting.  Congratulations are in order and we wish them the very best in their expansion!

Member Check Ins!

In addition to being very busy currently with asphalt paving and maintenance all over the place, David Mills has volunteered to fill the recently vacated Chair position of his Chapter.  David confides in us that the support he has received from his chapter has motivated him to give back to the group and he is looking forward to growing the chapter in the months ahead and assisting future members.  We want to thank you for your dedication to making your community grow!

Does Your Chapter have news to Share?

Reach out to us and give us news from your Chapter!  We love to hear about success stories and collaborations between members!

Checking in with us during this crazy season is Septic Service Nashua.  Walter Sanges reports that business is still rolling in for his company.  They are continuing to provide septic service in Nashua to all his clients and gaining new ones daily.  He wants to thank his Chapter for their continuing support and referrals that have been coming in.  Another example of Chapter members growing together!

Priority One Security Training checks in with us recently.  They have noted an increase in registration for security guard training in Edmonton.  They believe, and we agree, that there has been a rise in need of security guards due to the Covid-19 situation.  With businesses now beginning to renew their activities, often locations are restricted to maintaining a certain number of clients allowed on site.  Other businesses are hiring security guards to monitor the head count of individuals entering and leaving establishments.  Thus, keeping in line with new regulations.  And creating more job openings in this field.

Painters Enterprise is reporting a steady flow of new clients.  They have been continuing to offer interior painting services to both residential and commercial clients.  One of their recent clients is taking advantage of reduced bodies in the office spaces and has decided to launch a repaint of their work space.  Most of their employees are working from home and this allows for painters to complete the refinishing of areas without impacting employees.  They believe that the employees will appreciate the fresh, new feel of their work environments once back to the location on a full time basis.  

The Edmonton Business Chapter Continues to Grow!

It is incredible to see the growth that has begun to happen in the Edmonton area!  With strong chapters existing in the North and West area of the city, we are so pleased to hear of a new chapter opening up in the South region of the city!  As we understand right now, this chapter already has 7 new members and we are so excited to hear about their progress.  Val Turner, the owner of Towing In Edmonton, will be leading up the chapter and we want to thank him for his continued support of our foundation.  Lets all help him in anyway that we can to make this year a complete success for his chapter!

And one more for the Edmonton Chapter!  A new member has joined this chapter, with hopes of connections and opportunities!  We wish to welcome Tanner Lewis, the owner of Bookkeeping 4 Edmonton.  This company is offering digital bookkeeping and accounting services to other businesses.  They also have CPAs on staff to handle the corporate tax filing and statement preparations.  Personal income tax is also available, if anyone is interested.  Let's help them become the Bookkeeping Edmonton company out there!
