What we know about building here.

¶ 01

The market

Kamloops sits at the crossroads of the Thompson-Nicola - and businesses here serve everything from ranching country to the city's growing tech and education sectors. We build Kamloops sites that handle that range: ag and trades sites with no-nonsense lead capture, professional services with TRU-area polish, and tourism sites built around the city's outdoor and tournament identity.

¶ 02

The economy

Kamloops runs on three engines: Royal Inland Hospital (the city's single largest employer), Thompson Rivers University, and the BCLC head office downtown. Beneath that sits a heavy resource economy - New Afton, Highland Valley Copper, Domtar pulp, Tolko - all of which need B2B vendor sites and procurement-friendly content. The 2025 Coeur Mining acquisition of New Gold (US$7B) put New Afton on a longer runway and meaningfully boosts the local mining-services market.

A local quirk worth naming

Kamloops is the only Canadian city officially branded the 'Tournament Capital of Canada' - 100+ amateur tournaments a year. Hospitality and service businesses time campaigns around the tournament calendar, not the retail one. A site that bakes tournament-weekend SEO and booking-funnel logic into a hotel or restaurant client speaks the local economic language fluently.

Cody and his team are incredible. I worked with him to design my website and it is so beautiful and user friendly. Any time I have questions or need changes done, Cody is so fast at implementing them. It makes me feel like he really understands how important business ownership and customer service is and that he cares about how our businesses do. I am so happy I was able to find Cody at The Bomb and feel safe that my website is managed by him and his team. It is a huge weight off my shoulders. Thank you for your amazing work and attention to detail. I am grateful.

  3. "I recently had the pleasure of working with Cody on my rebrand and website re-creation and it was incredible! Cody is so easy to work with; he's intelligent, intuitive, experienced, and skilled at getting to the heart of what it is you want in a website, even if youre not sure yourself at first :) He asks great questions and works FAST…he indulged all my "stupid" questions with grace and kindness and truly guided me through the daunting process. The product he turned out for me is gorgeous and functional and Im SO happy with the result! I cant recommend Cody highly enough!"
