Omni Cable LLC has recently announced it has expanded its Canadian footprint and opened a new location in Mississauga.

OmniCable decided to add another location in Canada to accommodate expanding inventory and customers’ needs. “With this new building, we are able to add new products for our Canadian distributors,” said Ian Rand, OmniCable’s Canadian Regional Manager. The new 35,000-square-foot facility in Mississauga carries standard stock lengths of aluminum, cord, LVT, fire alarm, TEW, copper building wire, and more.

“Based on the fantastic support of our distributor partners, we outgrew our Brampton facility in less than three years after entering the Canadian market,” said Chris Bjorkman, OmniCable’s Regional Vice President – Central Region. “This new facility allows us to expand our products and services from our North American supplier partners that have been with us from the start.”

We spoke to Reva Bond, Dean for SAIT’s School of Construction about women in trades, the apprenticeship model, meeting labour demand, and the importance of collaboration between industry stakeholders.
