Founder
Together with his wonderful wife, Jean, Jack Chow founded this highly successful business in the heart of Chinatown, which quickly became the place for Chinese-speaking clientele to do their insurance. Just before Expo’86, Jack had the foresight to acquire a deteriorating narrow building, completely rehabilitating it and having it be awarded an official world record by the Guinness Book of Records, bringing international fame to Vancouver Chinatown.
Jack was a true pioneer and an iconic figure in Chinatown, dedicating his vibrant life to advocating for and improving the community he loved. He was also a remarkable inventor, innovator, a FRI-Gold recipient, and one of the Real Estate Board of Greater Vancouver Quarter Century Club's rare 50+ year members, a distinction he held until his passing.
