2015 - Networking Tour of the Harbour with Metro Vancouver Chambers

Description

Join us for this special event with the Burnaby Board of Trade and Port Metro Vancouver in conjunction with New Westminster Chamber of Commerce, North Vancouver Chamber of Commerce, Richmond Chamber of Commerce, Surrey Board of Trade and Tri-Cities Chamber of Commerce

As Canada's largest port, Port Metro Vancouver enables the trade of nearly 20% of Canada’s total trade of goods by value. Join your fellow Metro Vancouver chamber members for a Port Metro Vancouver tour of the Burrard Inlet aboard a chartered vessel to learn more about the operations of the port to ensure safe and efficient trade of Canada’s import and export goods.

Throughout the tour, guests will have an up-close view of Port Metro Vancouver’s major marine terminals operating in Burrard Inlet, from the Lions Gate Bridge through to the Ironworkers Memorial Bridge. Narration will be provided about the port’s five business sectors (four of which operate in Burrard Inlet) and key infrastructure and landmarks along the way. You will also hear about the port’s air, land and water protection initiatives and
how we continue to work as leaders in port sustainability.
