The Canadian Vacation Ownership Association (CVOA), one of the leaders in vacation ownership and resort development ethics, has just announced the membership of seven companies that have joined the association this fall.
For over 40 years, CVOA has brought in a variety of companies and professionals to become members of its association, which is well-regarded for its high ethical standards in the vacation ownership and resort development industry in Canada. Participating companies come from various fields including management firms, development companies, exchange companies, entire resorts, service providers, vendors, and more.
CVOA’s President and CEO Ingrid Jarrett was thrilled to welcome these prestigious companies to their ranks:
