Town of Caledon

JANUARY 2019 | BUSINESS ELITE CANADA 11 1,700 companies call Caledon home and some of those like Husky Injec- tion Molding Systems, Mars Canada, and Sardo Foods are doing well on the world stage.” What makes Caledon unique is that, despite its rapid growth it has managed to maintain its distinc- tive rural/urban charm. “As Caledon grows, we’re confident that we’ve achieved a balance that will continue to support this rural and small village feel,” Thompson says. This combination of shovel-ready employment lands and enviable quality of life make Caledon a desir- able destination. “Much of our land base is protected by provincial legislation, from the Green- belt and Niagara Escarpment to the Oak Ridges Moraine,” Thompson says. “Of the remaining developable land, we have carefully targeted growth in three areas (Bolton, Caledon East and Mayfield West) to balance commer- cial/industrial and residential…and preserve that rural/urban mix that makes Caledon what it is.” www.caledon.ca
