CONCORD — More than 100 Canadian manufacturers will hear about the benefits and opportunities of expanding their operations into northern New Hampshire at a dinner and presentation in Sherbrooke, Quebec, June 20.

The trade trip, by officials of the state Division of Economic Development, will showcase the North Country, and particularly Coos County, as places where Quebec companies can expand, DED said in a news release.

Michael Bergeron, business development manager for DED, said in the news release the event is sponsored by Public Service of New Hampshire.

Community leaders and French-speaking business owners from Colebrook, Groveton and Berlin will also attend, and the Canadian dinner guests will have a chance to win a two-night stay donated by the Mountain View Grand in Whitefield.
