THE FOUNDATION FOR A FAMILY OF BUSINESSES.

Founder Luigi Aquilini emigrated from Travagliato, Italy, in 1956 to establish a life for his family in Vancouver on Canada’s West Coast. Over the following decades he began by building quality homes and then expanded his company by diversifying into the agriculture, hospitality, and entertainment industries. Luigi’s philosophy and clear vision of how he wants to contribute to his community is based on honesty, respect and discipline. Luigi is especially proud of the thousands of private sector jobs he has created, and the co-workers and partners who have helped him achieve his company and community building goals.

With the devastating effects of global climate change seen around the world, AMREI’s goal of turning waste into energy is more imperative than ever. The three generations of the Aquilini family are proud to be stewards of AMREI’s mandate of implementing sustainable practices to deliver a better tomorrow.
