Manufacturing Newfoundland and Labrador’s Future Initiative holding roundtables in St. John’s and Clarenville

NOTE: This opportunity has expired or is an event which has already taken place.

Canadian Manufacturers & Exporters – NL Division (CMENL) and its partners, the Atlantic Canada Opportunities Agency and the Department of Business, Tourism, Culture & Rural Development, invite you to participate in our “Manufacturing Newfoundland and Labrador’s Future Initiative”.

This initiative will bring together manufacturing executives from across the province through Executive Roundtables to discuss and create a common agenda to support the growth of manufacturing and exporting in Newfoundland and Labrador.

The next series of Roundtables is scheduled for the following dates and locations:

St. John’s – CME Office
October 30th – 9 am to 1 pm (lunch included)

St. John’s – CME Office
November 4th – 9 am to 1 pm (lunch included)

Clarenville – Clarenville Inn
November 6th – 10 am to 2 pm (lunch included)

Manufacturing is vital to Newfoundland and Labrador’s economy and to the prosperity and living standards of all residents of this province. Manufacturing directly accounted for 2.7% of provincial GDP in 2013. While this figure appears small, the indirect impacts run far deeper as manufacturing has the largest economic multiplier of any industry – $3.15 for every dollar in total output. Newfoundland and Labrador manufacturers sold $6.3 billion in goods in 2013, employed over 12,000 residents generating $667 million in salaries and wages, and accounted for $4.3 billion in exports.

Firms interested in participating in either of these roundtables can contact Abbie Lacey at abbie@neia.org.
