Veteran Business Vendor Expo

Veteran Business Vendor Expo 

We are proud to host the Veteran Business Vendors Expo!

This special event is dedicated to highlighting the innovation, resilience, and entrepreneurial spirit of veteran and currently serving Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) member business owners.

The Expo brings together a diverse group of veteran-led businesses in one central location, offering the public a unique opportunity to shop directly from veteran entrepreneurs, discover one-of-a-kind products and services, and learn more about the stories behind these inspiring ventures. 

Join us in supporting those who have served our country—by supporting their businesses.

When: Saturday, November 1, 2025
Where: 16 Civic Centre - Petawawa Civic Centre
Time: 10 am to 3 pm

We are excited to announce a collaboration with myFM to help promote and highlight our veteran or member businesses.  In addition to web and radio announcements on three stations, leading up to the Expo, myFM will host interviews and news stories from the Pembroke station.  There will also be 75  30-second ads where we will rotationally tag the veteran businesses that sign up as vendors.  myFM will also do a live on-location segment during the event, offering promos and live cut-ins with the vendors.  All of this exposure and value is part of your vendor fee.

Registration is limited, and to get additional value from the collaboration with myFM, early registration is required.  Register by September 26th.
