Schneider Electric opens new Halton Hills distribution centre

Schneider Electric has opened a new 130,000-square-foot distribution centre in Halton Hills, Ont., as part of a strategy to strengthen its Canadian operations and support the country’s energy sustainability goals.

Located at 6 Cleve Court in Georgetown, the facility will serve customers in the commercial, industrial, residential and infrastructure sectors. Operated in partnership with CEVA Logistics, the site will improve delivery times for electrical components and equipment across Canada.

CEVA’s Halton Hills facility is also among the first global locations to deploy Manhattan Associates’ Active Warehouse Management and Order Management systems, which enhance operational efficiency and supply chain resilience.

“The opening of the Halton Hills distribution centre demonstrates our commitment to Canada and to providing fast, reliable access to critical electrical infrastructure components,” said Emily Heitman, president of Schneider Electric Canada. “This investment will help support Ontario’s growth, strengthen local supply chains, and create new jobs for the community.”

“This new distribution centre represents a powerful step forward in our partnership with Schneider Electric,” added Jeff Wiedwald, vice-president of contract logistics for North America at CEVA Logistics. “By combining Schneider’s commitment to sustainable energy with CEVA’s global logistics expertise, we’re enabling faster, smarter and more resilient supply chain solutions across Canada. Together, we’re not just moving products—we’re powering progress and supporting communities.”

The project expands Schneider Electric’s Canadian footprint, which includes more than 2,000 employees, four R&D centres, 20 sales and service offices and three manufacturing plants. The company says its technologies are used in 40 per cent of Canadian homes and 50 per cent of buildings.
