Director by interim
Jacob, originally from Campbellton, attended CCNB Bathurst in 2011 . Shortly after headed West to work in the oil industry.
In 2014 the opportunity of working back home was presented. 2 years after moving back to his hometown he took the step into entrepreneurship by opening East Coast Industrial out of his home garage by himself servicing local customers part time. This quickly grew into an industrial servicing company that offers 24/7 service in all Atlantic provinces a few short years later. Jake grew up seeing his dad in business and saw the hard work and sacrifices needed to be in the business world, he also seen how rewarding it could be when all that hard work paid off.” I am very appreciative to be able to join the Chamber of Commerce. The journey of building a business is an amazing feeling. Having the opportunity to be a part of the growth of our region is incredible ”
” I am proud of where I am from, it’s a beautiful area to live in. It’s a dream come true to be able to work and raise my family here. There is so much untapped potential and opportunities. People need to know that you don’t need to wear a suit and tie to work every day to be successful. Trades are in high demand all across the country and this is not communicated enough to our youth.”
