4/6/2010
The old Sterling truck plant in St. Thomas won't be empty very much longer.
Masco Canada Limited, a subsidiary of Masco Corporation, announced today that it has agreed to purchase the land and buildings at 350 South Edgeware Road.
The company intends to consolidate its current London and St. Thomas operations in the former Sterling plant.
“The decision of Masco Canada Limited to consolidate their manufacturing facilities in St.Thomas speaks to the high quality of our regional labour force, whether it is in machining, advanced manufacturing, tool and die or assembly operations,” said Mayor Cliff Barwick.
The consolidation of the two sites will enable the operations to work more closely together and better utilize resources.
There are 187 employees at the London location and 120 employees at the St. Thomas location. Consolidation will occur during 2010 - 2011.
Masco Corporation is one of the world’s largest manufacturers of brand-name consumer products for the home and family.
