(March 19th, 2025)
Vancouver Golf Tour is excited to announce that IGA Stores of BC have signed for the 19th straight year as the Tour’s Presenting Sponsor!!
“IGA has been the backbone Sponsor of the Vancouver Golf Tour for 19 straight years and has allowed the VGT to provide thousands of golfers with a professional platform for golf competition across the province” stated VGT Commissioner Fraser Mulholland.
“We are so grateful having a local and trusted company like IGA supporting the Vancouver Golf Tour” continued Mulholland. “For the last 18 years, IGA has been helping us build a strong foundation for the long-term success of our operations, while providing thousands of golfers a professional tournament platform to achieve success. IGA has allowed us to develop some of Canada’s most prominent golf talent including 5-time PGA TOUR winner Nick Taylor, and fellow BC Pros Adam Hadwin and Adam Svensson who have both gone on to win on the PGA TOUR”.
With their 2025 Tour sponsorship, IGA will be recognized throughout the 2025 VGT season at 40+ events and highlighted as a Major Sponsor of both VGT’s fundraising events – the Vancouver Open & VGT Fundraising Pro-Ams. Thanks to IGA’s support, the past four years VGT has supported 20 local golfers with a total of $100,000 in bursaries and scholarships to assist with their golf equipment, travel, training, and tournament costs.
“We are very proud to support amateur golf development in the Lower Mainland through this sponsorship of the Vancouver Golf Tour” stated Senior Marketing Manager of Georgia Main Food Group Julia Hwang. “We are big believers in the vision VGT has for the tour and the future of golf in the Lower Mainland”.
