“Our leased space in Mississauga was expensive. We decided to build rather than continue to lease. We bought reasonably priced acreage from the City of Barrie and easily were able to hire the customer service and warehouse people that we needed. We’re only 45 minutes north of Highway 401 and we ship nationally so a central location is helpful.”
