Our Philosophy
Answer the Challenge of Global Housing
There is enormous global demand for affordable housing. The market is huge and growing daily. Developers (whether governmental or private) in many developing countries are desperate to produce housing for their growing populations. Rockport is proud to provide a workable solution.
Bring a First-Rate Product to a Welcome Market
To properly serve the needs of this huge global market we have made it our mandate to deliver a product that meets the needs of developing countries at a price they can afford. Our homes must be durable and long-lasting. They must not be vulnerable to constantly changing market trends or new technology. Rockport's revolutionary building technology places it in the forefront of manufactured housing, a technology unrivalled by its competitors.
Build Homes that are Good for People and Our Planet
Our homes are designed so that their production leaves a soft footprint. Forests need not be harvested, water resources need not be compromised, precious metals need not be extracted, wildlife need not be threatened, nor the earth and its atmosphere polluted.
Serve the Needs of Local Populations
As a responsible corporate citizen that respects the aspirations of the countries in which it locates, Rockport will hire local workers, pay fair wages, provide healthy and safe working conditions, encourage training and advancement, and observe ethical labor practices.
Balance Profits and Principles
Canadian Rockport Homes International Inc. has the potential to be an enormously successful and profitable company. It has the markets. It has an innovative product to revolutionize an industry and address a need of crisis proportions. Equally as important, however, it has a vision grounded in corporate and social ethics, a vision which holds that profit and social responsibility are not mutually exclusive. More
