Irving Oil chose Saint John for a reason.
Chief Brand Officer at Irving Oil, Sarah Irving, says the city’s year around ice-free port, deep tidal water, and highest tides on the planet means Saint John can welcome the largest ships in the world.
Saint John is positioned well for access to global markets to one of the largest driving markets in North America, the US Northeast.
Irving says with these facilities and world class operations, Saint John has found its place on the map as one of the finest loading and unloading facilities in the world and every day it plays a critical role in the world’s energy supply chain.
When asked, “why Saint John”? Irving says the answer is simple.
She says Saint John is “our gateway to the world.”
At home and on the road with customers, suppliers, and partners Irving says they always make a point to talk about home, to talk about Saint John.
Arthur Irving was also named the 2017 Port Award of the Year recipient.
