A Commitment to Growth and Prosperity
Our mission is to promote and support innovative development across an array of economic sectors and to foster a community built on the principles of opportunity, diversity, innovation and success for all.
BWG – Build, Work and Grow with us!
Bradford West Gwillimbury (BWG) is one of the fastest growing communities in Ontario, attracting thousands of new residents looking for economic opportunity, housing, and urban amenities in a rural setting. Located on the rich black soils of the Holland Marsh, BWG is recognized nationally and internationally as one of Canada’s top producing agricultural areas. As the community grows, BWG has made significant investments to capitalize on its strategic location between Greater Toronto and the expanding communities of Simcoe County, to build upon its agricultural legacy to create a dynamic mixed economy.
The community features dozens of parks, trails and other outdoor features, including the Scanlon Creek conservation area. It has modern library and recreation facilities and hosts a series of family-friendly events year-round, including Carrot Fest which draws 50,000 visitors each August. BWG’s expanding retails offerings and numerous professional services are complemented by a burgeoning manufacturing sector, which features dozens of internationally-respected manufacturers, transportation and logistics companies, and agri-food producers.
BWG is staying true to its agricultural roots, while planting the seeds for a successful tomorrow. We invite you to Build, Work and Grow with us and see everything BWG has to offer!
