Bimbo Canada bakery in Hamilton will see $15 million expansion

The Hamilton facility of Canada’s largest and oldest commercial bakery Bimbo Canada – formerly known as Canada Bread – is receiving a large expansion to the tune of $15 million. 

The expansion of Bimbo Canada’s Trillium bakery, located on Nebo Road on the Hamilton Mountain, will help increase local manufacturing capacity by way of a state-of-the-art tortilla production line, and is expected to create new Hamilton-area jobs as well. 

The Ontario government is also chipping in by providing a $1.5 million grant through the province’s Regional Development Program and its Advanced Manufacturing and Innovation Competitiveness stream. 

“Our government is thrilled to support this investment from Bimbo Canada – a growing Ontario company that believes in its community and is creating jobs for the people of Hamilton,” said Premier Doug Ford in a release

“As we continue to navigate global economic uncertainty, our government will continue to work tirelessly to create the economic conditions that attract investments like these. We’re cutting red-tape, keeping taxes low and making investments to improve our province’s competitive advantage.”

Headquartered in Etobicoke, Bimbo Canada is a major Canadian producer of baked goods, with 16 bakeries and 11 distribution centres employing over 4,300 people across the country. They produce more than 1,000 different products for bread brands like Dempster’s, Villaggio, and Stonemill.
