               When Brent Brownmiller, VP of Sales & Marketing, left Vancouver for the Okanagan, his friends and family
               understood why. The reputation, people, products, and growth associated with the Gorman Group attracted
               him to make the move. “We align with our partners and their success is equally as important to us, as our
               own,” says Brownmiller. Enhancing our long-term sales and marketing strategy, building a sales team with a
               strong entrepreneurial spirit, and increasing efficiency within the department are just some of Brownmiller’s
               responsibilities.

               Our sales team all have hands-on experience manufacturing these products. After accepting a customer’s order,
               we provide them with valuable insight on production, lead times and equipment used. Whether it is Gorman Elite,
               Canoe Plywood, or Selkirk Select, we pride ourselves on producing the most consistent products in the market.
               Brownmiller adds, “The service, I believe, is the best in the industry, and if it’s not, we want to hear about it.”


               The Gorman Group has seen major changes in the last 70 years and there will be more in the years to come.
               “Innovation and technology are a daily conversation within our group and is the key to maintaining our
               competitive edge,” says Brownmiller. We continue to conduct trials on new products and different wood
               species, model and simulate new products, all while making significant investments in our facilities. We have
               loyal customers and it is because of them that we have a solid future making high demand products in all the
               countries we supply.






                    We send our high-value products to over 30 countries around the world.
                    Gorman Boards have even been found being used as far away as in a
                    small coffee shop in a northern territory of Pakistan!
