June 3, 2026 (Richmond, B.C.) –HME Medical Distribution (“HME”) is proud to announce that Co-Founders Robert Boscacci and Cameron Fleming have been named finalists for the EY Entrepreneur Of The Year® 2026 Pacific program.
The recognition highlights HME’s remarkable growth journey over the past 14 years, transforming from a small four-person operation in British Columbia into one of Canada’s largest independently owned medical equipment distribution and accessibility companies.
“It has been an incredible 14-years for Robert and me. From four people in 2012 to now over 150 staff and 11 locations, HME has built itself into one of the largest Canadian distributors of medical and accessibility products in Canada. What makes this recognition especially meaningful is the incredible team that has grown alongside us throughout the years,” said Cameron Fleming.
“As HME has grown, we have always stayed true to our values of innovating products, improving accessibility, and making mobility a strength for the people we serve,” said Robert Boscacci. “Over the past 14 years, HME has evolved from a traditional home medical dealer into a fully integrated medical distribution company with a growing dealer network, proprietary product development initiatives, and Health Canada Class 1, 2, and 3 medical device capabilities.”
He further noted that “HME has continued to outperform the market while expanding into new product categories, new locations, and national distribution opportunities. This recognition is really a reflection of the incredible people across our organization who continue to push HME forward every day.”
“Robert and Cameron have been a tremendous strength for HME. From mentoring staff, to investing in innovation, to continually supporting the healthcare industry, they have consistently demonstrated their dedication to both the business and the people around them,” noted Michelle Harvey, COO.
Kristy McMartin, Director of Compliance at HME, noted that “since 2012, I have had the opportunity to work closely with Robert and Cameron and watch HME grow from a small local business into a national healthcare organization. What has always stood out is their commitment to people — both clients and staff — and their willingness to continue investing in innovation, culture, and long-term growth.”
“Robert and Cameron have always encouraged innovation and leadership development within HME. Their vision has created opportunities for so many people across the organization and has helped position HME as a leader within the healthcare and accessibility space,” said Shannon Comeault, Head of Sales.
Eli Paradis, Head of Accessibility noted that “HME’s growth has always remained connected to improving accessibility and supporting clients. Robert and Cameron have consistently focused on building solutions that help people remain safe, independent, and mobile.”
“Over the years, HME has continued to expand while maintaining a strong operational culture. Robert and Cameron have built a company that values accountability, innovation, and supporting its teams,” stated Kendra McDougall, Head of Operations.
