About


History of AHC logos from 1893 to present

SINCE 1893.

Alfred Horie Construction, one of the oldest companies in British Columbia, is a company that follows a successful recipe of integrity and dependability since 1893. The company was founded by Mr. Edward G. Baynes (1870-1956) and Mr. Will Horie (1858-1940).

Alfred Horie (son of Will) remained as manager until 1956 at which time Eugene, who had joined the firm as an apprentice in 1936, became manager and eventually became the owner in 1972. As was the history of the company to remain within the family, Eugene’s three sons, Stephen, James and John, followed suit to share ownership of the company from 1981 to 2017.

In 2023 John transitioned into retirement and a group of long-term employees took over as the ownership team; Nancy Sehra, Peter Paone and Dino Sartori taking over as president.

The company now uses the name AHC Group to better describe the expertise and variety of services the company offers.
