Indigenous Business Partnership of the Year Award 2026

We were proud to be part of the award ceremony recognizing Ntityix Development Corporation and its joint venture in 700 Spland Road LP. This JV with Hungerford Properties (via Seven Generations Capital) started with a vision of delivering quality rental housing to the market by renovating the existing 23 units, and building the 46 units in the səkʷiw on Keefe Creek project. Kilawna Builders is currently finishing the project with 3 of the 5 buildings completed.

From BC Achievement:

700 Spland Road Limited Partnership is a partnership between Ntityix Development Corporation (NDC), the economic development corporation of Westbank First Nation, and Hungerford Properties, a 100% Indigenous-owned, second-generation family business. Together, the partners address the need for quality rental housing options on Westbank First Nation (WFN) reserve lands through a shared commitment to community well-being, collaboration and sustainable development.

The partnership was established to create modern, accessible housing solutions that foster a sense of belonging, pride and connection while reflecting the natural beauty and cultural richness of WFN territory. Built on shared values of respect, teamwork and a collective vision for the future, the development integrates contemporary amenities with environmental stewardship and thoughtful community planning.

Recognizing the ongoing housing challenges faced by many Indigenous communities, 700 Spland Road Limited Partnership is creating long-term solutions that support growth, sustainability and community prosperity. Through Indigenous-led economic development and meaningful partnerships, the project contributes to the continued well-being and future success of Westbank First Nation.
