Chard Development is an urban real estate development firm based in Vancouver, B.C. An award-winning company, we specialize in urban, mid-sized condominium and commercial projects in Metro Vancouver and Greater Victoria.

Founded in 1994 by David Chard, President and CEO, we have evolved from a development management consulting firm to a highly respected merchant developer of commercial and multi-family residential projects. By 2018, Chard will have completed over 1.3 million square feet of its own signature developments.

Third-generation Vancouverite David Chard is a leader in urban development. With more than 40 years in the retail, office and residential sectors, Dave has spearheaded notable projects across Canada and has developed and consulted for clients including Hudson’s Bay, Mountain Equipment Co-op, Cadillac Fairview and Ivanhoe Cambridge.

For the past two decades Dave’s talented Chard team has focused on purpose-built projects. Known for well-designed, sought-after properties, Chard is an influential voice in urban revitalization.

We shape spaces that encourage residents to live and work in the heart of the city. We breathe life into underserved corners and have been the first to envision the next desirable centre. The result is a vital urbanism that promotes wellbeing, community and commerce—the reasons we invest in the neighbourhoods where we work.
