About us

White Heather Imports was founded in Calgary in 1971. Jim Osborne bought the shop in 1996 when he was looking to leave the construction business. His involvement in the Scottish community coupled with the retirement of founders John and Jean Whitelock provided a timely opportunity.

Jim is a cabinet maker by trade and worked in some of the great houses in North East Scotland, restoring antiques and doing installations. He immigrated to Calgary in 1976 with his young family and worked for a few local companies before establishing his own millwork. Local examples of his fine cabinet making can be found in locations such as The Ranchmen’s Club and The Petroleum Club.

Jim remains committed to the Scottish and Irish communities in Calgary and across western Canada. He is an active member of the Calgary Burns Club and The 78th Fraser Highlanders and is pleased to provide support to cultural and community organizations wherever he does business.
