Craftsmanship Runs Deep.
Leadership Moves Us Forward.

For over 50 years, Westwood Cabinetry has been designing and building premium cabinetry that blends tradition with innovation. From our roots in the Okanagan to homes and developments across Canada and the US, we’re proud to be a multi-generational, woman-led company committed to quality, service, and community.

From One Craftsman’s Vision to a Legacy of Excellence

Westwood Cabinetry was founded over five decades ago by Nick Grasa, a Croatian immigrant who brought his craft to Canada and made the Okanagan his home. With nothing but skill, vision, and determination, Nick built a company grounded in quality craftsmanship, customer care, innovation, and community connection.

Today, his daughter, Angie Norman, leads Westwood Cabinetry with that same spirit — carrying her father’s legacy forward while guiding the company into new markets, new technologies, and an ever-evolving world of design.

Under Angie’s leadership, Westwood is proud to be a woman-led, multi-generational business focused on timeless values and forward-thinking solutions.

“Our foundation will always be craftsmanship and integrity. But we’re also here to evolve — to meet the needs of today’s homeowners, developers, and designers with heart, innovation, and excellence.”
Angie Norman
President
