If Morinville was one big shopping and entertainment centre, this would be the mall directory.
Shopping malls and power centres succeed by helping the businesses inside them succeed. One of the essential tools they use for that is a simple, up-to-date directory that shows what’s available inside and where to find it.
When new businesses arrive, they’re added and promoted. When businesses close, they’re removed. And there are never any businesses listed that aren’t actually part of the mall—no matter how big their ad budget is.
Our goal is to give Morinville’s business community that same advantage—making shopping and running errands in and around town more appealing than hitting the highway to drive into the city.
Local shopping is better than people think
Buying locally is often the best option, thanks in part to ever-evolving technology and logistics in supply chains—but especially because of hands-on business owners who are genuinely knowledgeable about their products and services. Add on the savings in driving time, fuel, and the aggravation factor of big box parking lots, and really, that trip down the highway for a snow blower or a birthday gift isn’t worth the headache.
That is, if it’s easy to know where to get what you need locally.
Local marketing has been getting harder
While supply chain technology keeps improving, small-business marketing has only gotten harder. Newspapers have shrunk. Social media is crowded, expensive, and full of noise. Customers need a simpler way to connect with real local businesses. That’s why we’re here.
If you’re a local business or non-profit, this site will help customers find you—whether you run a well-known franchise or teach music lessons in your garage.
- standard listings are completely free
- customers can search for you by name, category, or keyword
Search your name; there’s an excellent chance you’re already listed.
Highways run both ways
When businesses within an area thrive, they draw more traffic and help attract new complementary shops, services and entertainment, creating a ‘virtuous cycle’ of business development that benefits everyone. With over 10,000 residents, Morinville can support a bigger variety of businesses. St. Albert and Edmonton are close by, sure, but as the saying goes, highways run both ways.
- 10k+ residents in town
- 19k+ in the region
- 1.5m+ in the greater metro
👉 In short, Everything Morinville is here to make shopping and running errands locally easier than driving to the next town over—and to give our business community the same advantages malls and power centres enjoy.
