BURLINGTON, ON
When there is a media release late on a Friday – traditionally it is bad news that governments or corporations in trouble like to slip in before the weekend – hoping it is gone by Monday.
Another home for The Cultured B – biotechnology company.
Today, the Burlington Economic Development people announced that the L3Harris site on the North Service Road will be occupied by The Cultivated B; who are making the location its Canadian Manufacturing Facility and Innovation Hub.
The 130,000sf facility looked like it was going to be difficult to find a tenant for the building. It will become the global hub for cellular agriculture and bio-technology.
This investment will create 200 jobs in Burlington over the next two years. These jobs will be highly skilled workers, including Biotechnologists, plant scientists, chemical engineers, and others.
Burlington Economic Development looks forward to furthering the relationship with Hamid, Raphael and the rest of the team at The Cultivated B to ensure their move to Burlington is as smooth as possible, and help them become an integrated part of our community.
