Vista Technology

Vista Technology was founded in Edmonton, Alberta Canada in 1976 as a Prepared Microbiological Culture Media Manufacturer. From 1976 to 1983, with Colin Wylie as President and owner, Vista continued to grow and expand until we were the second largest Prepared Media manufacturer in Canada. We now proudly supply almost all customers in Western Canada... - from the Pacific to the Great Lakes and from the Canada/US border to the Arctic Ocean. We were successful because of the quality of our products and out attention to superior customer service. In 1981 we moved into a brand new, substantially larger 3000 sq. ft. production facility Since then we have add two additional adjoining bays to accommodate expanded production requirements. In 1983, when the recession hit, a number of things changed that would affect our business and my personal life. Firstly, as a result of cutbacks, governments and hospitals changed to a lowest bid philosophy. With that change larger Easter Canadian and US Culture Media were able to make inroads into our market.Read More
