SAINT JOHN – The New Brunswick government says 63 full-time jobs will be created in Saint John when a Vancouver-based company opens a new sales and development centre in the city.

CEO Arnold Leung of Appnovation Technologies Inc. says Saint John gives the company access to markets on both sides of the Atlantic because it is within a four-hour time zone of both the United Kingdom and the west coast of North America.

Crown corporation Invest NB is providing Appnovation with a payroll rebate of up to $500,000 over five years as well as a forgivable loan of $230,000 towards capital costs.

The government says the new centre in Saint John will create technical and sales jobs in the next three years.

The company also has offices in Montreal, the United States and the U.K.
