About Us
In 1992, we as the Tŝideldel First Nation embarked on a journey to build a diverse portfolio of businesses and joint ventures owned fully or in partnership by the Nation. These enterprises represent our community's resilience, entrepreneurial spirit, and our ability to think big and out of the box. Each business collectively contributes to our success story, and are expertly guided by Tŝideldel Development Corporation (TDC).
Currently, TDC manages the Redstone Gas Bar, Bendziny Resort, Barney’s Lakeside Resort, Puntzi Lake Logging Camp, Tŝideldel Timber Limited Partnership, is a part owner in the Eniyud Community Forest, and heavy equipment rentals. Tŝideldel Aggregates is our newest entity, and we have a successful joint venture with Tl’etinqox Government to operate Central Chilcotin Rehabilitation Ltd.
Our commitments have always extended beyond solely profits; we champion environmentally responsible practices and healthy partnerships with multiple benefits focused on good economic, social, and environmental outcomes. With our tradition of hard work and mutual benefits, we are Open to Business to forge innovative pathways that strategically embrace change for a bright future.
TDC is always open to opportunities to expand into new and exciting areas of business. We're Open to Business. We embrace change, explore new horizons, and innovate and adapt to emerging trends, keeping us at the forefront of business opportunities. We invite you to partner with us.
