Notes on this record
- Coquitlam publishes no ranked top-employers list with headcounts; Invest Coquitlam sector pages show placeholder "Key Players" only. coquitlam.ca news releases (CivicAlerts.aspx) are disallowed by its robots.txt for all agents and were not read.
- This /local region (ca-coquitlam) holds two separate cities, Coquitlam and Port Coquitlam, read as one place (Jim, 2026-10-31: Coquitlam is the business centre, PoCo largely its residential community; shared SD43 schools and transit). Port Coquitlam rows are flagged as such.
- Blocked or not recorded: Hard Rock Casino Vancouver (Coquitlam), Superior Poultry Processors, AMPCO Manufacturers, Hy-Line and Mobilio — no response to our robots.txt request. Dynamic Structures (Port Coquitlam) returned HTTP 500. Fraser Health (Eagle Ridge Hospital is in Port Moody) and PHSA (Red Fish Healing Centre) are already listed under Surrey and Vancouver.
- Checked and left out: Moment Energy (funded second-life battery maker; its own contact page now gives its HQ in Surrey, BC — $40M Series B (May 2026) led by Evok Innovations per its release, a candidate for the Surrey file); Uniserve (head office Vancouver); Fairchild Group (Vancouver).
- robots.txt read as its own request before any other request to each host (redirect targets included); User-Agent ResearchUpon-employers/1.0 on every request.
