Motion expands in BC 

TORONTO – Motion, formerly Motion Specialties, a provider of mobility and home accessibility solutions in Canada, has acquired A-1 Wheelchairs Unlimited in Langley, British Columbia. A-1 Wheelchairs, a family owned and operated business that was founded in 1985, provides products and services to Langley and its surrounding communities – from Vancouver to Hope. “Building on our expansion throughout British Columbia, which began with the integration of North Coast Home Medical Equipment in January, this acquisition demonstrates our ongoing commitment to enhancing our customer service and reach across the province,” said Thecla Sweeney, executive chair and CEO of Motion. A-1 Wheelchairs will now be known as Motion Langley. “The Motion Langley team will work closely with our established Motion Vancouver team to best support our clients with their ongoing and growing need for quality mobility and accessibility products and services in this area,” Sweeney said. In addition to North Coast HME, Motion has acquired the wheelchair and stairlift division of Shoppers Home Health Care, MEDIchair (Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, and Newmarket, Ontario), Creative Mobility Products and Eastern Mobility Specialists in the last five years.
