Sault Ste. Marie, ON (September 12, 2017) – To highlight the community’s competitive advantages, the Sault Ste. Marie Economic Development Corporation created a promotional brochure last year titled Why Sault Ste. Marie? The campaign won a 2017 Marketing Canada Award today from the Economic Developers Association of Canada in the Single Publication category.

“It’s great to have our community recognized on the national stage,” said Nevin Buconjic, Manager of Trade, Investment & Community Marketing for the Sault Ste. Marie Economic Development Corporation. “We wanted our brochure to show the Sault as a modern and progressive city with competitive business advantages, and I thank our design firm for carrying out this vision and creating a fantastic product.”

The Why Sault Ste. Marie? brochure was designed locally by the creative team at Cavera Inc., with direction and vision from the Sault Ste. Marie Economic Development Corporation.

The goal of Why Sault Ste. Marie? is to demonstrate to companies and investors that the city is a manufacturing hub with human resources expertise, a strategic location and excellent quality of life. Simply put, it shows that the Sault is a great place to live, learn, work and play.

This marketing campaign is part of Invest Sault Ste. Marie, a targeted investment attraction initiative being delivered by the Sault Ste. Marie Economic Development Corporation. Funded by all levels of government, the program is designed to create jobs by attracting external companies and investment to the community.
