Moncton Industrial Development Corporation Feature

by Heather Ferguson

The thriving City of Moncton is served by two great industrial Parks – the Moncton Industrial Park in the city’s southwest sector and Caledonia Industrial Estates northeast of the city and adjacent to the Trans Canada Highway. Both industrial centres come under the umbrella of Moncton Industrial Development Ltd., an entity responsible for the development of space to accommodate new business and industry to our area.

Since 1960, the Moncton Industrial Park has been home to up-and-coming businesses and industrial enterprises. Growing in tandem with the Greater Moncton Area’s own expansion and development, this industrial park is now close to full capacity. The last few years in particular have seen the addition of 60 to 70 companies to the park, making it the largest industrial park in the New Brunswick in terms of the number of companies it includes. To date, there are approximately 276 companies in this 600-acre park including operations such as Armour Logistics’ 300,000 sq. ft. warehouse, Terrain Group, Norampac, and Fancy Pokket Bakery.

At Caledonia Industrial Estates, there’s room to grow! This industrial centre has seen marked expansion with many good sized companies locating to the park in the last ten years. Encompassing some 1,600 acres, this park is fast becoming a major player in the Atlantic Transportation Network. Location, location, location represents the distinct strategic advantage of Caledonia Industrial Estates.  Sitting adjacent to the Trans Canada Highway and served by CN Rail, Caledonia is an ideal industrial park for companies serving communities throughout the Atlantic region and beyond.  Locally, the park is also well connected with direct links to Route 15, the Greater Moncton International Airport, other area industrial parks, and to downtown Moncton.

Offering prime lots in three distinct zones, Caledonia Industrial Estates is comprised of a traditional industrial zone, an open industry sector, and a commercial area to allow for restaurant and hotel facilities that can cater to both the parks’ employees and travellers on the road. Early 2007 saw the opening of the ever popular Tim Horton’s/Shell Convenience Store Complex on Harrisville Blvd. while nearby, the new 110,000 sq. ft. Molson Brewery is due to be in full operation this Fall. Other important tenants of the park are the 230,000 sq. ft. Shoppers Drug Mart Distribution Centre serving the entire Atlantic region, Atlantic Wholesalers’ 185,000 sq. ft. frozen food distribution centre, Spielo Manufacturing’s 100,000 sq. ft. facility specializing in gaming and video lottery terminals, Irving Personal Care’s 150,000 sq. ft. diaper manufacturing plant, and currently under construction is Al-Pack Industries’ 60,000 sq. ft. manufacturing plant and the new Peterbilt dealership.

Moncton Industrial Development’s General Manager, Peter Belliveau, says, “Our focus is on further expansion of Caledonia Industrial Estates, developing lots, creating the infrastructure of basic services, and opening up a network of new streets in a ‘ready-to-go’ capacity to accommodate new industries to the park.” The future does indeed bode well for both of these industrial centres as driving forces behind the economic health of the Greater Moncton Area as a whole.
