Entrepreneur depuis plus de 18 ans, Philippe Goulet est visionnaire et polyvalent. Soucieux du travail bien fait et des chiffres, c’est un homme d’action qui aime être au cœur des décisions.
Co-fondateur du Boucan Boucherie et Traiteur, il a occupé le poste de président de 2017 à 2022 avant de vendre ses actions pour se consacrer à son entreprise en pleine expansion, Biotero.
L’idée de l’entreprise Biotero a germé dans son esprit alors qu’il était propriétaire d’une entreprise de paysagement et d’entretien extérieur à Lac-Beauport.
Suite au moratoire interdisant les engrais et les pesticides près des bassins versants, ses clients lui demandaient une alternative pour leur pelouse. Après des recherches, il a découvert ce procédé bien connu en Europe et utilisé sur les terrains de golf. En voulant l’appliquer, il a réalisé que les coûts de production étaient très élevés donc très dispendieux pour le client. C’est ainsi qu’il a imaginé la machinerie nécessaire pour le concept Biotero, le seul joueur majeur dans le domaine du terreautage et de l’ensemencement dans la province de Québec
Sa plus grande force en affaires est la gestion de la production et le contrôle des ressources. Pour lui, l’efficacité est primordiale. Sa meilleure qualité humaine est sans aucun doute son naturel communicatif. Il a réussi à se construire un énorme réseau de gens d’affaires et d’intrants professionnels.

With an innovative leadership style and a strong entrepreneurial spirit, David Wallach has expanded Barclay Street Real Estate from a small local establishment with a handful of brokers to one of the most prominent and respected commercial real estate brokerages in Alberta.
David’s career started over 30 years ago in Israel where he owned a successful insurance brokerage and was President and GM of a professional basketball team. However, David saw bigger opportunities in his future when he, his wife and three children immigrated to Canada in 1999.
In 2000, David began his career in Canadian commercial real estate and was later invited to join a group of senior negotiators who bought an established real estate firm in 2001. In 2003, David assumed the leadership role of President with a rigorous business growth plan in mind, and in 2004 the brokerage was rebranded under the name Barclay Street Real Estate.
In a few short years, David has made strides in growing Barclay Street locally and internationally. In 2007, David added Property Management to Barclay Street’s portfolio of services and the division has grown dramatically in the last few years with properties throughout Alberta, managing today over four million square feet.
To expand Barclay’s national and global reach, David formed a partnership in 2011 with TCN Worldwide, a real estate services organization that serves more than 200 markets globally. As a member of TCN Worldwide, Barclay Street has the ability to service their customers on a local and international level through a network of over 1200 commercial real estate firms. Since 2012, David brings his commercial real estate knowledge to the international stage as a board member on the TCN Worldwide Board and as the Regional Vice President of the Canadian Region.
On April 2013 David received his CCIM - Certified Commercial Investment Member designation.
In June 2014 David launched a new venture, Triumph Real Estate Investment Trust. A private REIT focused on acquiring revenue-producing properties in defined markets both in Canada and the U.S.A. David is the founder and president and is responsible for all real estate matters of the Trust as well as involved in raising funds for Triumph.
David holds a strong belief that a company and individual are only as strong as the community and clients they serve. With that in mind, Barclay Street takes part in many community initiatives including sponsoring local music festivals.
With the leadership philosophy of "leading by example", David has created a culture of mutual respect and care for his employees that transcends beyond the office wall so every client receives top-quality service and should not expect less when dealing with a Barclay Street employee. With family-centric ideals, David ensures Barclay Street employees and clients feel like they are dealing with family, not just coworkers or a commercial real estate broker.
