IKEA Starts Building $300M Customer Distribution Centre in Hamilton
Hamilton Business Review
“…IKEA Canada hosted a groundbreaking ceremony at the location of the future IKEA Hamilton Customer Distribution Centre (CDC) and Collection point. The new unit is part of a more than $400 million investment to enhance its omnichannel journey and retail experience to become even more affordable and convenient for Canadians. Located at 212 Glover Road, with a final size of 483,285 square feet, once certified, the IKEA Hamilton CDC will be among the top five largest zero carbon industrial buildings in Ontario.
As a home furnishings retailer, IKEA believes in having a positive impact on both people and the planet. Globally, IKEA is on a journey to accelerate its climate actions, aiming to halve emissions across the entire IKEA value chain by 2030, reach net zero emissions by 2050, and achieve more than 90% of home deliveries made by zero-emissions vehicles by 2028.
To support its sustainability ambitions, the new Hamilton CDC building will aim for Net Zero Carbon national certification, LEED Gold certification, net positive energy annually, and contribute to zero emission transportation targets.”
