Canadian Tire – Eastern Canada Distribution Centre

At the time of its construction, this massive, state-of-the-art distribution centre for Canadian Tire was Broccolini’s largest industrial project to date — and the largest single-phase industrial construction project in Canada. Delivered on an accelerated schedule, the facility strengthened the partnership between the two companies and set a benchmark for future projects. Construction began in July 2006, and by December the building was fully enclosed and heated. The entire facility, along with five auxiliary buildings, was completed by December 2007.

Located on a 167-acre site, the 1.6 million sq. ft. facility is surrounded by nearly 6 million sq. ft. of heavy-duty paving, with space to store over 2,000 shipping containers, 170 trailers, and 800 cars. While Broccolini has since delivered even larger and more complex industrial projects, this milestone remains a testament to the company’s ability to deliver ambitious, high-performance facilities on time and at scale.
