Bombardier chooses Mississauga for Global production

Bombardier has announced that Mississauga in Ontario, Canada will be home to a new international manufacturing centre for its Global business jets. The 41.2-acre facility will be located on Toronto Pearson Lands.

“Mississauga is thrilled to welcome Bombardier to our city – a leading global aerospace hub and home to Canada’s largest aerospace sector,” said Mississauga Mayor Bonnie Crombie. “Bombardier could have picked anywhere in the world to locate its Global Manufacturing Centre but the company chose Mississauga. Not only will this investment support jobs and attract talent, but it will also boost economic growth and help raise Mississauga’s profile as a global aerospace hub where innovation in aerospace thrives.”

The new one million square foot facility will see the final assembly line for the manufacturing of Bombardier’s Global business jets and includes a hangar space for pre-flight activities.

“Businesses choose Mississauga because it is supportive and provides an innovative environment for them to grow and flourish,” said Bonnie Brown, director of economic development for the city. “Mississauga is very attractive to global aerospace companies looking for the right conditions such as a talented and highly educated workforce that can support a large OEM like Bombardier. Our commitment to growing Mississauga’s aerospace cluster has been very successful in helping us achieve our economic goals and attracting new investment.”

The new facility will have the capacity to build up to 100 aircraft a year and will support thousands of jobs.

Alain Bellemare, president and chief executive officer, Bombardier said: “I’m very excited to announce the relocation of our Global aircraft family production activities to a new, cutting-edge manufacturing facility at Toronto Pearson. This is a strategic move for Bombardier and a strong commitment to Ontario’s aerospace industry. It will allow us to offer world-class career opportunities and continue fueling the economic development of the region for years to come.”

Mississauga’s aerospace cluster is the largest in Canada with more than 345 aerospace companies employing 28,000 employees.
