Northumberland Tourism Business Directory

The Northumberland Tourism Business Directory is a powerful resource that brings together the attractions, products and services available in the County. This resource provides visitors and residents with an easy tool that helps them find everything they're looking for while they are here. Currently there are more than 750 businesses listed in this directory.

Listing your business in the directory is FREE. The listing will help expand your reach, widen your audience and raise your profile in search engines. Include images that reflect the exterior, interior, products and/or services for your business so that potential consumers know at a glance what they can expect. Be sure to add your social media information as well as your website and any other ways to contact you. Use the Products & Services field to outline what you offer in detail, along with any key items that differentiate your business (accessibility, accepting credit cards, bike-friendly, curb side pick up, take-out, etc.).

Your listing is editable by you, 24/7. If you have any issues with your listing, please contact johnsona@northumberland.ca
