About Honda Canada Inc.
In 1969, when Honda came to Canada, we came as a small company with a dream. We began with motorcycles and power equipment and it took a lot of work to gain the confidence and trust of Canadians. But we worked hard and over time our products earned the respect of the marketplace. And so we grew. In 1986, we built a manufacturing facility in Alliston, Ontario. In 1998, we built a second plant at that same site, and in 2008, we completed the construction of a third facility, a $154-million engine plant. In May of 2010, Honda Canada moved into our new Gold Certified LEED® (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) Head Office in Markham, Ontario.
Today, we source nearly $2.1 billion in goods and services from Canadian-based suppliers each year, produce approximately 400,000 vehicles annually at our manufacturing facilities and we employ more than 19,000 Canadians in manufacturing, sales offices and dealerships across the country. Simply put, Honda is a remarkable Canadian success story that will celebrate it's 55th anniversary in 2024.
Thank you Canada.
