Über diesen Titel

Excel Industries has been making quality cabinets in Kamloops BC for sixty years. My father started it from nothing with hard work and an uncompromising belief in doing things properly. My sisters and I run it now. "What We Built" is the story of what it actually takes to keep a family business alive across generations — the craft, the hard years, the sibling dynamics, the community we've served, and the legacy of a man who showed up every single day and made something worth being proud of.

  • Episode 3 - Three Siblings, One Business
    Feb 25 2026

    Running a company with your sisters sounds straightforward until you're actually doing it. In this episode Victor talks candidly about the reality of three siblings sharing ownership and responsibility of a sixty year old family business — how they divide decisions, where the friction comes from, why the business has a habit of showing up at family dinners uninvited, and what their father saw in all three of them when he left the company in their hands. Honest, warm, and occasionally funny!

  • Episode 2 - The Hard Years
    Feb 24 2026

    Every business that survives sixty years has had moments where it almost didn't. In this episode Victor gets honest about the hard times — the economic cycles that battered the cabinet industry, the periods where the numbers didn't work, and what it actually felt like to carry the weight of a family business through uncertainty. What he learned about his father in those years. And what the hard times taught him about what Excel Industries is really made of.
