The Canadian Centre of Product Validation will be run by Fanshawe College and test various consumer products, as well as building, military and automotive products, for the global marketplace.

It is expected the centre will create upwards of 165 jobs.

Local MPs and stakeholders made the announcement at Fanshawe College this morning.
