Northwest Landscapes

What Northwest Landscapes does

Northwest Landscape & Stone Supply (operating as NWLS) is a privately held Canadian landscape materials retailer founded circa 1978, headquartered at 5883 Byrne Road in Burnaby, British Columbia. The company sells natural stone, pavers, garden décor, planters, pond and water feature supplies, landscape tools, lighting, bulk aggregates, and concrete wall systems through four physical retail yard locations across the Lower Mainland and the Sea-to-Sky corridor: Burnaby (headquarters), Abbotsford, Squamish Saw Shop, and Squamish Boulder Patch. Its signature Huckleberry Stone brand covers basalt columns, boulders, wallstone, and custom-cut materials quarried from the Squamish-Whistler corridor by the wholly owned Huckleberry Stone Supply division, marketed as 100% Made in Canada.

The company runs a direct-to-consumer and trade channel model, with on-site loaders serving bulk purchases by the half yard or full yard, bagged materials, individual specialty items, and paid delivery in supersacks. A Squamish-based saw yard and sandblasting booth enable custom granite fabrication including bollards, water feature blocks, commercial benches, stair banisters, and signage. Distribution is exclusively physical retail with no digital checkout, but the firm maintains an extensive online catalog with estimator tools, how-to guides, and a glossary, alongside YouTube, Facebook, and Instagram profiles.

Revenue is generated entirely through retail and trade sales of landscape hardgoods, with pricing varying by unit (per yard, per bag, per piece) and tiered by size. The customer base spans landscape contractors, masonry contractors, and retail/homeowner DIY buyers across British Columbia, supported by memberships in six national and provincial industry associations including the Natural Stone Institute and the Canadian Masonry Contractors Association. The firm reports no external funding, no parent company, and no public disclosures of financial results.
