Federal funding will support the expansion of manufacturing and production capacity for North Bay's Gateway City Brewery
Today, the Honourable Anthony Rota, Member of Parliament for Nipissing-Timiskaming, announced a repayable FedNor contribution of $534,422 to support the expansion and modernization of Gateway City Brewery. The announcement was made on behalf of the Honourable Patty Hajdu, Minister of Indigenous Services and Minister responsible for FedNor.
These strategic investment will allow Gateway City Brewery to expand its product line and increase its revenue stream, while achieving production and distribution efficiencies. The move to a larger space will also help the company purchase new equipment that will increase production capacity, positioning them to expand their distribution to stores within the North and across Ontario. The modern space will allow the brewery to enhance customer experiences and host events that appeal to both the local and tourism markets. The investment is expected to create at least nine jobs in the first three years of the expansion.
Strong local economies rely on local businesses. That is why the Government of Canada is proud to be investing in projects like these, which support innovation and technology adoption while helping business to start up, scale up, and create local jobs in Northern Ontario.
