Kimberley Marion is the visionary behind KICA Contracting Ltd., a 100% Tahltan-owned business she founded to address the lack of Indigenous employment opportunities in the resource sector. Starting with just four staff members in a small catering operation, KICA has grown into a thriving enterprise, employing over 100 people and servicing up to eight camps. With 85% of its workforce composed of Tahltan staff, KICA empowers Indigenous peoples to advance their careers while promoting fair wages and employee well-being.
Originally from Iskut, BC, Kimberley splits her time between Telegraph and Dease Lake. For the past 25 years, she has been deeply involved in her community, particularly through volunteering in recreational sports and her dedication to the Dease Lake Recreational Centre Society. Kimberley tirelessly works to complete the Centre, including the installation of an ice plant, and enjoys organizing fundraisers to support this dream. Her commitment to both her business and community showcases her unwavering dedication to uplifting her people.
