Starting a business in Moncton
The Hub City is bilingual, growing and full of people starting something new. Here’s the local scene, the help on offer, and two ways to get your website: build it yourself, or set it up with us.
What people start in Moncton
Moncton has grown quickly, and new residents bring new businesses with them: cleaning companies, home daycares, renovation crews, food trucks, salons and fitness studios. Many newcomers open grocery stores, restaurants and services for their own community, and soon serve everyone else too.
Its central spot has always made Moncton a crossroads. Trucks, trains and flights from here reach the whole Maritimes, so logistics, distribution and customer service are big employers, and plenty of entrepreneurs start in those fields after learning them on the job. A lively tech and start-up community has grown up around the city as well.
Moncton is officially bilingual, and most businesses serve customers in French and English in the same day. Between the Université de Moncton, the CCNB in Dieppe and the NBCC campus, many young people start their first venture here, while Magnetic Hill, the Petitcodiac’s tidal bore and the beaches a short drive away keep summer tourism busy.

Your first step online: two ways
Do it yourself, for CA$6.99 a month plus tax. Pick a design, answer a few questions, and your site is built in about a minute, in English, French or both. Change any word, then publish.
Or set it up with us. WebNewBee is made by RKP Atlantic Business Services in Grand-Barachois, just outside Moncton. If you’d rather not do it alone, we can set up your site and email with you. The setup is quoted before anything is charged.
Either way, you get a real email at your own domain, like info@yourbusiness.ca, instead of a free webmail address. In a city where customers compare two or three options before they call, that small detail tells them you’re here to stay.
