Chapter President
Jason Buchanan
Jason Buchanan
After spending his childhood in Saint John, NB, Jason attended Mount Allison University with the dream of one day becoming an entrepreneur. After graduating with a degree in Commerce in 1996, he joined Royal Bank, where he spent 10 years working in many communities throughout the Maritimes in different managerial roles. In 2006, his desire to fulfil his entrepreneurial passion led him to his role as President and Managing Partner at Premiere Van Lines. Jason lives in Dartmouth with his wife, twin boys and daughter. A self-professed “grass roots kind of guy”, he believes strongly in the importance of giving back to your community.
