Client Testimonials:

Darrell Keen,
GTO Global

Mindy Jones,
JMG Logging Ltd.

Kyle, Cheryl and the team at Dougan Irwin & Associates played a key role in facilitating the sale of my Canadian business to a large global organization. Prior to the sale, DI&A extended their support by hosting the CFO from the purchasing organization at their Nanaimo office for several days. During this period, they provided the purchasers with all documentation requested, including analytical support, and addressed all inquiries they had concerning the company’s operations and financials. Thanks in part to the efforts of DI&A, the business sale was successfully concluded, marking their vital contribution to the process.

We’ve been clients of DI&A for over 25 years, and Don, Kim and the rest of the team have always taken great care of us and our business. As logging contractors, it’s important to have someone who understands the industry and the challenges that come with it. Dougan Irwin’s guidance has been dependable and genuinely helpful.
