Joanne Dafoe and Mike Bodnar are the team that brings the excitement behind ChopValue YYC. Both Joanne and Mike are born and raised Calgarians with entrepreneurial pasts and uninhibited enthusiasm for the future. Joanne has successfully operated her own Landscape Design business for 14+ years, and Mike, after putting himself through University leading his own sod installation business, has been a Geologist for 8 years. When they aren’t working, they can be found playing a game of Kubb in the park with their families.

"When you bring chopsticks to a local Microfactory and watch as we give them a second life, the feeling is incredible. You actually get to experience the big difference a small action can make — not to mention, the product is stunning and sure to be a conversation piece for any home or business."
