What is it about Niagara that helps you succeed?

"Our future is brighter here in the Niagara Region. Several regional factors are lending to our current growth, despite any economic downturn. Certainly the lower cost of operation is a key factor - in any business. But we also benefit tremendously from an excellent local talent pool and easy and affordable access to North American and global markets. For us, location is everything. Buffalo is 15 minutes, Hamilton is half an hour, GTA, under an hour. There's no better location than right here in Niagara."
- Scott Riesebosch, President, CRS Electronics
