The Construction Source

Admiral Development and Operations is a developer and builder of multi-family developments in the Greater Vancouver and Vancouver Island areas. Over the years, they are a company that has grown and evolved in a number of significant ways, with every evolution motivated by their mission to develop the kind of housing product their market needs.

He has also traveled overseas and forged relationships with reputable suppliers and manufacturers, who are capable of supplying the company directly and reliably, so they can build faster and at an increased volume. Just as importantly, he has identified communities that are serious about building housing – communities such as Nanaimo, BC – and he’s formed close partnerships with their relevant authorities. As a result of Stanford’s efforts, Admiral Development and Operations has made great strides in all facets of building, from quality, to cost efficiency, to speediness – and they are ready to go even further.
