Highway Motor Freight expanding operations at CentrePort Canada Rail Park
Highway Motor Freight is expanding operations at CentrePort Canada Rail Park outside Winnipeg with a $16 million investment in facilities and the creation of 150 jobs. This includes the acquisition of 20 acres of land to construct a 32,000-sq.-ft. transportation terminal, anticipated to be operational in late 2025.
Highway Motor Freight began operations out of a 7,000-sq.-ft. building at CentrePort Canada in 2020. The new facility, more than four times the size of its current space in Brookside Business Park, will enable the company to increase its fleet from 125 units to over 800 units and incorporate corporate operations, maintenance, warehouse space, and a wash bay.
Jass Dhillon, president and chief executive officer of Highway Motor Freight said in a news release, “Looking ahead, we have begun planning Phase 2, which will feature a 50,000- to 75,000-sq.-ft. cold storage warehouse.”
