Alberta’s Largest Business Trade Exchange Becomes the Only Barter Exchange in the YYC Business Network — Across All 14 Canadian Cities
Exmerce Barter Inc. has officially joined the YYC Business Network as the Exclusive National Partner in the Barter Exchange category —
becoming the authoritative voice for business trade in Calgary, Edmonton, and beyond. The designation recognizes Exmerce as Alberta’s leading business trade exchange and positions the company as the go-to resource for any Calgary or Edmonton business looking to generate new customers, conserve cash, and turn excess inventory or idle capacity into purchasing power. Exmerce is the only barter exchange in the YYC Business Network. No other trade exchange or competing service will hold this designation.
Founded over 21 years ago, Exmerce has grown from a local Calgary concept into Alberta’s largest business trade exchange, now serving more than 500 businesses across Calgary and Edmonton. Through reciprocal partnerships with other trade networks, Exmerce members also access trading opportunities in Surrey, British Columbia, and Winnipeg, Manitoba.
“Joining the YYC Business Network as an exclusive partner gives Exmerce a powerful new channel to reach Calgary and Edmonton businesses. We’re excited to help even more companies discover what barter can do for their bottom line.”
— Nelson Liem, Founder & CEO — Exmerce Barter Inc.
The exclusive partnership means Exmerce will be featured across the full YYC Business Network content distribution system — including authority articles optimized for Google, AI search platforms, and generative engine results, LinkedIn newsletters, press release syndication, YouTube, podcast features, and social media distribution across the network’s 14 Canadian city channels.
For Calgary and Edmonton business owners, the partnership creates a trusted, highly visible point of reference. Whether they’re searching for ways to reduce cash expenses, generate new customers, or fill idle capacity, Exmerce now holds the exclusive authority position in the barter exchange category across the entire YYC Business Network.
“Exmerce has been solving real cash flow problems for Calgary businesses for over two decades. This is exactly the kind of exclusive partner the YYC Business Network was built to amplify.”
— Greg Belanger, Founder — YYC Business Network / MegaPixx Media
Exmerce members gain access to the network through a dedicated barter concierge, a two-times weekly e-newsletter (Exmerce Hoopla), 15 annual networking events, and an affiliate program. The exchange accepts Exmerce dollars as charitable donations on behalf of organizations including Canadian Cancer Society, Make-A-Wish Canada, and Variety — The Children’s Charity.
