VGM Club Canada was formed in 2003 due to the Canadian market asking for a program similar to what VGM Club has done in the United States at National Trade Shows.
VGM Club, North America's premier member service and marketing organization for membership-based clubs, includes golf, tennis, yacht, city and athletic clubs. Current membership exceeds 3,000 facilities in all 50 states and Canada. Collectively, VGM Club members possess purchasing power in excess of $1.5 billion annually.
The buying power of the group allows VGM Club Canada to negotiate national account programs for individual clubs. VGM's portfolio offer programs covering club and restaurant operating supplies, capital equipment, food and beverage, pro shop merchandise and golf course maintenance supplies.
VGM Club Canada is a proud supporter of the Canadian Society of Club Managers and other organizations and educational events on an annual basis.
