“Fred C. Manning was the first person in Canada to receive the honour of having a business school named after him—and for good reason. From humble beginnings, he created one of the largest and farthest-ranging business empires that ever had its genesis in the Maritimes.”— Acadia University
Beginning in 1913 with a small Ford dealership, he built one of the region’s largest business empires. His legacy lives on with numerous organizations receiving support each year from the Fred C. Manning Charitable Trust.
