CITY OF GRANDE PRAIRIE
GRANDE PRAIRIE IS READY FOR YOU
To us, investment-ready means we’re ready for you, for your family and for your ideas
We connect your product to international markets by road, rail, and air. Highways 40 and 43 lead outdoor enthusiasts to all- season natural playgrounds like Jasper, Grande Cache and Tumbler Ridge.
The Grande Prairie Regional Airport brings you closer to your next destination, with regular WestJet and Air Canda flights to and from Alberta’s major cities — Calgary and Edmonton.
INVESTMENT-READY MEANS TAKING CARE OF YOU
Home to Alberta’s newest hospital, Grande Prairie’s robust healthcare sector is something Northwestern Alberta can count on.
With everything from emergency services to a state-of-the-art cancer treatment facility, to specialists like ophthalmology and nephrology, a full spectrum of care is available for residents.
New healthcare professionals can gain skills locally at Northwestern Polytechnic and practice in the city for years to come.
With healthcare services across specialties, and new providers choosing to call Grande Prairie home, Grande Prairie’s healthcare sector is budding with the opportunity for healthcare specialists to grow.
