Whistler Water is a manufacturer and supplier of bottled water. Their water originates from mountains just north of Whistler in British Columbia, Canada and is bottled a short distance away in Burnaby, British Columbia. Whistler Water has been supplying their products for over 25 years.
History
Whistler Water's original source was located at Function Junction (British Columbia Highway 99 at Cheakamus Valley Road) in Whistler, British Columbia, and was used from 1991 to 1992 before it was moved to a secondary source because of industrial intrusion. Whistler Water, since 1992, has been sourced from Place Glacier outside Whistler, British Columbia. In 1997, Whistler Water introduced the Whistler Glacial Spring Water 'mountain bottle' packaging and began targeting export markets aggressively.
