Chandler: an economy reinventing itself
Chandler long identified with its pulp and paper mill. Its closure forced diversification into new niches: wind energy, marine processing, industrial services, transport and tourism. Many current businesses were created by former workers from heavy industry.
Turning expertise into a business
An industrial mechanic, welder, electrician or operator going independent holds valuable know-how. What they know less is the consequence of contracting personally in an industrial setting: unlimited liability, difficulty winning mandates from structured companies, no way to transfer the business.
A corporation solves those three points and turns individual competence into a transferable asset. It also allows welcoming a partner, common when several former colleagues join forces.
Online incorporation, no travel required
Our pricing includes government fees. See our online incorporation guide or start your incorporation.

Provincial or federal for a Chandler business?
For work performed in Quebec, the provincial regime is enough. Federal becomes relevant if you serve projects in the Maritimes.
Starting together, from day one
If two or three former colleagues join forces, sign a shareholders agreement at the same time as incorporating. It sets the share split, exit rules, share valuation and what happens in a disagreement. It is the document nobody wants to draft and everyone regrets not having.
Your obligations once incorporated
Annual updating declaration, a current minute book, a separate corporate tax return and resolutions recording major decisions.
Common questions from Chandler entrepreneurs
I mostly invoice a former employer. Is that a problem? Not in itself, but dependence on one client raises tax questions. Validate with an accountant and fix it by diversifying.
