Our Mission Statement


At our annual spring meeting held on April 17th and 18th, 2006 we set out to create a mission statement that could set us apart. In developing the mission statement we started with a brain storming session, involving all of our employees and asking them to first come up with words which would describe the type of company that they would be proud to work for.

As one would imagine many words were suggested. After all the suggestions were brought forward we narrowed the list down to the words that best described North Shore and started to develop a “traditional” mission statement. So we began developing a one or two sentence statement that conveyed a message on how we are truly “different” and can offer what our competitors can not.

After developing a statement we realized that it was looking a lot like others that we had read. This in itself was saying that we were no different than any other environmental company and that if we were going to be truly different our mission statement should absolutely reflect that!

The first thing you will notice about our mission statement is that it isn’t typical and like North Shore, it is unique. It is simply comprised of our globe and dual crescents flanked by the five words which we felt best described what North Shore is committed too, no wasted words, straight to the matter, and truly unique….just like North Shore!
