Thank You to Our Chairman's Sponsor!:
Canada’s dynamic auto sector offers unparalleled opportunities for global automotive firms. Canada is one of the world’s top auto producers, with a leading auto parts industry and cutting edge R&D. We produce more than 2 million vehicles each year, 85% of which are exported. Our automotive manufacturing sector generates more than $102 billion in factory revenues and employs nearly 137,000 workers.

OEMs trust their Canadian operations with innovative projects. Canada was the first country outside Japan entrusted to build Lexus vehicles, and Honda chose Canada to lead the global launch of its 10th-generation Civic.

Canada is home to nearly 700 auto parts suppliers, including a cluster of world-renowned machine, tool, die and mold-making companies. Our Tier 1 suppliers, such as Magna International, Linamar, and Martinrea, rank among the world’s largest.

Low corporate taxes and unrivaled market access helped Canada be named one of Forbes' Top 10 Best Countries for Business in 2019. Canada is fully integrated into North America’s auto supply chains, and offers unequalled access to foreign markets, though free trade agreements with the European Union and key Asia-Pacific markets. This ensures preferential market access to more than 40 countries accounting for over half the world’s GDP.

The Canadian Trade Commissioner Service at the Consulate General of Canada in Atlanta, along with 161 offices at Canadian Embassies and Consulates around the world, supports companies seeking to establish themselves in, or source competitive, innovative products from Canada. We also help Canadian companies find new business opportunities abroad. Our services are free of charge. Please contact us today.
