Recognized as the industrial and commercial center of New Brunswick,
the Fundy Region has a proud heritage of entrepreneurship. Bridging the
markets of the northeastern United States, the Maritimes, western
Europe,
Quebec, and Ontario, the Region is home to many established businesses.
Its unique strategic advantages are allowing the Fundy Region to
attract
new attention as the preferred location for expanding national and
multinational
firms.
Close Proximity to Urban Centers
Grand Bay-Westfield offers the best of urban and rural New Brunswick,
encompassing both an active local business community and access to
larger
local and regional markets. Minutes away from uptown Saint John, Grand
Bay-Westfield has fast and convenient access to a variety of business,
personal, and government services. Grand Bay-Westfield is located near
the junction of provincial highways Rte 1 and Rte 7, giving the Town
easy
access to the Province's three largest cities, Saint John, Moncton, and
Fredericton.
In addition, Grand Bay-Westfield acts as the commercial service center to the rural and small communities of the lower St. John River Valley, a local market of more than 7,800 consumers. Rapid local growth is encouraging entrepreneurs to satisfy demands for a wide range of business and personal services.
Proximity to Large Markets
Part of the strategic location enjoyed by the business community in
Grand Bay-Westfield is the proximity to large and affluent markets of
the
northeastern United States as well as our own Maritime market. With the
American border a one hour drive away on recently upgraded highways,
companies
and businesses in Grand Bay-Westfield and area have access to the
largest
market of its kind in North America.
