Since 2016, Keltic Canada Development has been shaping Vancouver’s real estate landscape by pushing the envelope of innovation, quality, and sustainability. Headquartered in Vancouver, Keltic is a diversified real estate development company focused on creating a superior standard of living with the highest level of craftsmanship.
With established experience in building residential, industrial, and mixed-use developments, Keltic has leveraged lessons learned in China to bring to market unmatched projects, such as Coco Oakridge, Masimo Headquarters, The Paramount, Park West and O2 in Metrotown, successfully to market.
“We are not content with the status quo; rather we are constantly looking at ways to do things better,” says Rachel Li Lei, CEO Keltic Canada Development. “Our vision is to continue building a brand that is recognized for industry-leading design, quality, and innovation, while being committed to sustainability and energy conservation.”
Pushing the boundaries of sustainable innovation:
It isn’t a coincidence that the K in the Keltic logo is green. Take for instance, Keltic’s O2 Metrotown. It was inspired by the WELL Building standards; an internationally acclaimed institute focusing on five key health pillars to support the development of wellness-focused buildings and integrated communities. The amenities space and homes integrate several wellness components, such as advanced water filtration systems, commercial-grade air purification systems and more.
A few notable firsts:
- In 2021, Keltic secured one of the province’s largest land sales with the acquisition of 27 acres in Richmond Centre.
- With Coco Oakridge, Keltic was one of the pioneer developers to introduce enclosed retractable glass balconies to enjoy the outdoor spaces year-round.
- Presented a remarkable new landmark to the center of Richmond, by blending a unique First Nation’s art piece into a modern office exterior look.
