Thorold Multimodal Hub Grows Twofold

Bioveld Canada subsidiary The BMI Group, in partnership with HOPA Ports (Hamilton Oshawa Port Authority), has purchased a new, 170-acre industrial complex in Thorold, Ontario that adds 500,000 square feet of warehouse space and greenfield land to Thorold Multimodal Hub, effectively doubling its size.

Under a switching agreement, CIO Railways is now using existing CN track to serve Bioveld Canada’s Thorold Multimodal Hub in the Niagara Region of Ontario. (Photograph of a recent ribbon-cutting ceremony, courtesy of HOPA Ports.)
