Representatives from Canada Computers and Merry Electronics announced they are opening head offices in Richmond Hill and bringing additional jobs to the community at the 2023 Collision Conference in Toronto today, according to the City of Richmond Hill.
Canada Computers is the nation’s largest Canadian-owned retailer of computers and electronics. With existing stores in Richmond Hill, they have broken ground in the city’s Barker Business Park on a new, modern, state-of-the-art headquarters and main distribution centre, which will support future expansions, a news release stated.
Merry Electronics is a world-leading manufacturer of Total Electro-acoustics Solutions. With headquarters in Taiwan, Merry Electronics has 18 locations throughout the world, including China, the United States, Singapore and Thailand. Richmond Hill will now be home to their North American head office.
Richmond Hill is home to more than 5,180 businesses, part of Canada’s largest technology cluster and boasts one of Canada’s most educated workforces, the city stated. Its diverse, highly skilled talent pool, along with its prime location in the centre of the Greater Toronto Area with easy access to major highways, ports and international airports, makes Richmond Hill a strategic place for companies to locate.
“We are thrilled that amazing companies like Merry Electronics and Canada Computers have chosen to lay down roots and call our community home. We have a talented workforce, supportive business environment and outstanding quality of life to provide a thriving ecosystem for companies of all sizes,” said Mayor David West.
