The Radius Family Featured in BIV

The BIV article reads: A trusted brand across Metro Vancouver since 1948 changes its identity. In its over 75-year history, Vancouver Fire, now under the leadership of Mike Baxter, has transformed from a small extinguisher sales company into one of B.C.’s largest fire safety and security providers all while preserving its family-run origins since 1948.

The company has experienced immense growth within its businesses, and what was once Vancouver Fire, National Fire & Safety Planners and Radius Security, are now aligned under the parent company — The Radius Group. 

“As a growing company, we have reached a point where the multitude of names created more confusion than clarity, making it difficult to reflect the full scope of our capabilities and the diversity of services we provide,” Baxter explains.

And while the world is markedly different compared to when the company was founded in 1948, the bedrock of its success remains unchanged: investing in people, giving back to the community and delivering exemplary service.

The company invests in community partners like the Pacific Community Resource Society, the Fire Fighters Burn Fund and Red Cross, to support youth facing barriers in the community and help mitigate the impact on families who have been devastated by fire.

“We have strong values and have always stayed true to those values through the past three generations,” says Baxter.  “We’ve always been dedicated to doing quality work and invested in training and developing great people. And when you do a quality job, people will come back year after year for their service needs, so our relationships with customers have stood the test of time because of the amazing work and results of our staff.”

Vancouver Fire and National Fire & Safety Planners will now be operating under the new name: Radius Fire Protection. 

Radius Fire Protection operates primarily in Metro Vancouver, but there are aspirations to expand east. The company focuses on fire safety plans, training, fire inspections, installations, repairs and fire monitoring for all manner of commercial buildings, high rises, restaurants and more.
