SALT LAKE CITY—March 14, 2013—Young Living, the World Leader in Essential Oils®, will celebrate the grand opening of its new office in Canada March 15–16. The event officially launches this latest market for Young Living, offering Canadian residents the opportunity to market the company’s industry-leading products and build a Young Living business. "I am thrilled about the phenomenal response as we approach the Canada Grand Opening of Young Living Essential Oils," said D. Gary Young, Young Living founder and CEO." Canada has held a special place in my heart since immigrating to the Canadian wilderness at age 17 to develop a ranch and eventually a logging, land-clearing business. At age 24, I sustained a life-altering logging accident that sent me on a new path that led to the discovery of essential oils and their powerful healing potential. I know that our Canadian members are going to achieve enormous success in this region, which will be a monumental success for all of Young Living." A ribbon-cutting ceremony and open house will take place at the office in Calgary, followed by celebratory events at the Calgary TELUS Convention Centre. More than 1,300 people from across Canada and the U.S. will be in attendance to hear inspiring speeches and receive training from Young Living leaders. “Demand is really high from our Canadian customers. For almost 20 years, they have been using Young Living products for personal use. We want to give them the opportunity to build a successful business with an established company,” said Joey Nanto, Young Living’s director of international development. The launch of the Canadian market is the first of several expansions for Young Living in 2013. New markets in Hong Kong, Germany, and Colombia are slated to open later this year as Young Living aggressively expands its global reach.
