Brian Hill, the president and CEO of Aritzia LP, is the BCBusiness Entrepreneur of the Year for 2008.
Hill has been aligned with the fashion retail business since birth. The son of Jim Hill, who started (and still runs) Hills of Kerrisdale, Brian spent his youth sorting hangers, washing windows and absorbing his dad’s business tutelage. By the time he reached university, he had a clear grasp of the retail world, but that didn’t prevent him from being kicked out of the commerce program at Queen’s University for poor grades.
