20230207. What was left of the Campbells Soup Factory in 2021. Now or soon you can have an industrial suite at the Birmingham Industrial park – aptly named for the address of this factory at 60 Birmingham.
20230206. There goes the 1947 LCBO warehouse on Toronto’s waterfront. The booze supply now sits at the much larger Durham warehouse and LCBO has contracted Trillium Supply to handle their ecommerce.
