What is a BIZ?
Imagine a place where businesses thrive. A place where business owners can create their own community of events and attractions. A place where people want to visit, shop, and spend time. A Business Improvement Zone (BIZ) can make such things a reality.
A Business Improvement Zone is an association of business people who join together to promote their mutual interests. The concept of joining together provides the local business district with a voice on how to attract clients and customers to their place of business, to undertake improvements and cooperatively market their businesses.

Anti-Graffiti Program
The Transcona BIZ Graffiti removal program runs every Spring to Fall. For urgent graffiti removal, you can report sightings to the City’s 311 service or add to our list by filling out the information below, and emailing a signed copy of the Graffiti Removal Service Release & Indemnity Form to admin@transconabiz.ca.
Buy a Paver
Are you looking for a way to leave your mark on Transcona? If so, our Buy-a-Paver Program is meant for you. We are offering the opportunity to purchase and engrave an 8″x 8″ paving stone and have it placed in the ground at the Transcona Centennial Square.

Transcona BIZ would love to help advertise your business or community event.
Reader Boards are available for rent by member businesses, non-profit organizations, and local for-profit organizations.
