Sunbelt acquires Okanagan Valley rental company

ARMSTRONG, B.C. – Sunbelt Rentals has acquired Nor-Val Equipment Rentals, a rental house with several locations and more than 80 employees across the Okanagan Valley region of British Columbia.

The Miron family opened the first Nor-Val location in 1994 in Armstrong, B.C. Following decades of expansion within the Okanagan region, the company introduced its Nor-Val Equipment Sales division in 2020.

All Nor-Val employees will remain with the company, with all previous locations to now operate under the Sunbelt name.

“The Nor-Val family would like to thank all of our customers, suppliers, friends and family for their business, loyalty and support over the last three decades,” the company said on LinkedIn. “We believe we have made a huge impact in this valley with our community support, and we know that will continue under the Sunbelt Rentals name.”

With this acquisition, Nor-Val will join Sunbelt’s network of 129 stores and over 2,300 employees across Canada. Sunbelt entered the Canadian market in 2014 and offers more than 14,000 products across locations in North America and the United Kingdom.
