Amherst, Nova Scotia, with a growing population of 10,000 plus, is located on the Nova Scotia - New Brunswick border in the geographic centre of the Maritime Provinces.  The Town actively and aggressively works to attract new industry by offering companies a fully serviced industrial park, a bountiful water resource and a soon-to-be accessible natural gas pipeline.  Amherst is the commercial centre for Cumberland County and community leaders agree that the town is well-positioned to maintain its prosperous economy in the 21st century.

Amherst is only a two-hour drive on a major four-lane highway from Nova Scotia's provincial capital, Halifax and just 1 hour and 30 minutes from its international airport.  Moncton, New Brunswick, and its airport are only a 40 minute drive while the 12.9 km (8 mile) Confederation Bridge, linking New Brunswick to Prince Edward Island, is less than 45 minutes away.
