WHAT WE ARE

History

The Saint John Executives’ Association (SJXA) was formed in 1960 by a group of small business executives.  The group met weekly to share information about the impact, current activities within the business community, had upon the businesses of each or all of its members. Today, building on its valuable premise, SJXA is an exclusive Association, providing vital information, support and prosperity to its growing membership network.

 

Mission and Vision

SJXA is a leading-edge group of entrepreneurs, sharing strong values with a determination to win.  We focus on the growth of our businesses, our people, and our region; with an awareness of the economic challenges and demands of the Saint John area, and the changing business world around us.  SJXA offers unique advantages to members through education, mentoring and business leads.

Membership

SJXA selects only top Saint John Area business representatives to form its membership.  New members, proposed by current SJXA members, undergo a rigorous vetting and approval process before being invited to join the Association.  Memberships are limited to one organization per professional category.  Eligibility for membership is extended to diversified businesses, whose products or services represent a minimum of 60% of the business category for which they are proposed.
