Every business here is filed under a real category and pinned to the part of Richmond it trades in. The details come from the public OpenStreetMap map data, so they can be out of date — confirm with the business before you set off.
Narrow the list with the rail, by trade or by neighbourhood. Every filter is a plain link with its own address, so you can bookmark it, share it or send it to someone who needs a plumber's-worth of local knowledge without an account or an app.

Independent Richmond insurance brokerage on Westminster Highway near No. 3 Road, handling ICBC Autoplan, private auto, home and commercial policies. Small enough that you deal with the same broker each renewal rather than a rotating call center queue.

Three ways in
Every route through the index is an ordinary link with an address of its own. Nothing here needs an account, an app or JavaScript.
The rail lists every trade in the index, with the sub-categories under each one. Each is a real page at its own address, so a filtered view can be bookmarked or sent to someone who needs it.
Where a business trades matters nearly as much as what it does. The neighbourhood list splits Richmond the way the people who live here split it, and each one has a page of its own.
If the name is already known, the search box at the top of this page goes straight there. Part of a name works, and so does a street or a trade.
Why this directory exists
A directory is only worth the reading behind it.
Every entry is categorised and placed in the neighbourhood it trades in, starting from the public OpenStreetMap map data. If a business has closed, moved or changed hands, we would rather pull the page than leave a wrong address sitting at the top of a search result, so tell us when you spot one.
