Milwaukee Tool is planning to open a 54,000 sq. ft. service hub in Georgina, Ontario by the fourth quarter of 2026. The hub will be located in Keswick Business Park, accommodating 4.5 million people within a 60 km radius. It will employ 60 people and consolidate several facilities, and there is potential for future expansion.

What This Means for Canadian Contractors
This project shows how Milwaukee Tool is expanding its presence in Canada, which could influence the demand for construction services in the area. For Canadian builders, this means potential opportunities in the commercial sector, as new facilities and expansions may require additional construction and material supply. The central location and planned distribution center may also streamline operations for contractors by reducing logistical hurdles and potentially lowering delivery times and costs.
