Centralia Gets New Industry Canad.a's • only manufacturing operation in bicycle tires will relocate • at Centralia Industrial Park this fall it was announced by the -Hon. Charles MacNangla- ton,, acting Minister of the Dept. of Trade and Development. Dun- lop Canada Limited will trans- fer production facilities to Cen- tralia to meet a sales dernand growing at close to 10 percent per year. Need for expanding facilities has forced the firm to move. the operation out of its Toronto plant. The transfer will start early in September and manufacturing at Centralia is expected' to begin in mid-Oct- ober. This is the second Dunlop op- eration to move to the former Huron County Air Force Base. Earlier this year the company relocated its Chem Line Services Division at Centralia. Dunlop is the only producer of bicycle tires in Canada and it supplies the major bicycle manufactur- ers in. this country as well as the replacement market. The total bicycle tire market in Can- ada is estimated at $3 million per year. Its annual gross rate reflects both the increase in the youth market and the adult trend to- ward recreational bicycling. 'About 60 persons *ill be em- ployed in the tire operation at Centralia in its. initial stages, with key personnel from Toron- to moving to Centralia. Employ- ment potential is estimated at 75. Mr. MacNaughton hailed Dun- lop's original move to Centralia as .a vote of,. confidence in the Governments efforts to stimu- late regional industrial develop- ment. "This additional move indi- cates the company's success in decentralizing its operations to the common advantage of Dun- lop Canada Limited and the Province. We are delighted that such a prominent international firm is taking advantage of our efforts and we hope Dunlop will serve as an example to other companies whomay find it ad- vantageous to move out of maj- or centres." he said.
