Broccolini Breaks Ground on Cornwall Business Park Site

Site grading is underway at the location which is at the intersection of Industrial Park Drive and Tenth Street East. Work will soon begin on servicing and foundations for a 984,000 sq.ft. distribution centre.
“We are excited to once again be building a large-scale project in Cornwall,” said James Beach, Vice-President of Real Estate Development with Broccolini. “Over the next year the site will be very busy with hundreds of skilled trades as the building takes shape. Once completed this facility will provide state-of-the-art distribution services to support Canada’s supply chain network.”
