In 1959, Peter Young founded Peterson with a modest beginning and a rented typewriter. Driven by the dream of building a better life for his family, Peter was eager to start his business. But it was his wife and lifelong partner, Rose, who urged him to take a critical step: he needed to own his own typewriter. With her trademark determination, Rose began crafting and selling plastic flowers at local markets, saving her earnings to surprise Peter with the typewriter that marked the true beginning of Peterson Today, that typewriter sits proudly in Peterson’s head office in Vancouver, symbolizing the power of partnership, entrepreneurship, and hard work that laid the foundation for Peterson’s lasting success. Pictured below is Peter’s son, Ben Yeung, who continues his father’s legacy, leading Peterson with the same values that started it all.
