A U.K.-based company that makes tools and equipment used in the manufacture of food and pharmaceuticals is doubling the size of its Ottawa branch.
Detectamet said this week it is expanding its Canadian sales office and warehouse on Stevenage Drive from 2,500 to 5,000 square feet due to “great demand” for its products. The Ottawa location opened last April.
“We hope this expansion will allow Detectamet to carry higher levels of stock, ensuring that we can continue to provide an efficient on-demand service to our growing customer base,” sales manager Leo Wild said in a news release.
