A truck company is parking one of its locations in Chatham-Kent after buying 4.5 acres of property in the Bloomfield Business Park.
The Municipality of Chatham-Kent confirmed the sale with Expressway Trucks on Thursday. The property was sold for $240,000.
Expressway Trucks has locations in Windsor, London, and Waterloo. According to a media release from the municipality, the company is the region's "leading medium and heavy truck sales and service provider."
“Closing this deal is a great way to kick off the new year and is more evidence that 2020 will be another strong year for business investment and growth in Chatham-Kent,” said Stuart McFadden, director of Economic Development. “The visibility of the Expressway Trucks location from the [Highway] 401 will be important for both their success and will also provide another landmark to showcase our highly successful business park.”
It's unknown at this time how many jobs will be created through this venture. A completion date for the project has also not been determined.
There are 27 acres for sale at the Bloomfield Business Park, which consists of 1,20 acres.
