Well . . . 2007 turned out to be another excellent year for the Jim Pattison Group.
Rising raw material, labour and energy costs, together with the impact of currency fluctuations, are effecting the economy and several of our divisions – but have also presented opportunities for us going forward.
We continue as a Company to be focused on our customers – with CUSTOMER SATISFACTION as our #1 priority.
These days all of us are becoming more focused on protecting our environment. In our Company we are raising the bar on what we can and should be doing to support the sustainability of “our World”.
Going forward into 2008 we’re looking forward to another excellent year with a commitment to grow all of our businesses as well as add some new acquisitions.
We expect 2008 to be one of, if not the best year in the history of the Company.
My . . special thanks . . to everyone in our Company who contributed to the success of our 2007 year.

Jim Pattison
Managing Director
