We ship within two hours of Barrie and we can be in Toronto with our own 25 trucks in 45 minutes. The 407 makes western Ontario very accessible to us."
- Peter Moore, Moore Packaging
A Regional Centre
Located at a hub of major highway routes connecting to the north, south, east and west (Highway 400, Highway 26/27 and Yonge St (Highway 11)), the City of Barrie functions as a regional centre serving the Simcoe Area and beyond. As such, it is the focal point of many regional level services such as the Royal Victoria Hospital, Georgian College and the University Partnership Centre. Located at the heart of a super-regional catchment area, Barrie has evolved into a well-known retail destination.
