Established in 1952 as a small miscellaneous metal shop specializing in steel stairs, rails and fire escapes, Cooksville Steel continually expanded operations from the original location in Cooksville, Ontario, Canada. The town of Cooksville was incorporated into the City of Mississauga in 1974 but our corporate name remained unchanged. As the company expanded in size and capabilities, the focus of the operation changed to heavy structural steel for the construction industry. As the population and economy of Ontario continued to grow and prosper, so did Cooksville Steel. A second location in Kitchener, Ontario was added to maximize our ability to efficiently service the entire region of southern Ontario. Our company motto “Helping Build Ontario’s Future Since 1952” was chosen because we are proud of our history and our contribution to the growth and prosperity of Ontario. Today, in our current configuration Cooksville Steel consists of more than 110,000 square feet of shop and office space and 75 specialized employees combined at our two locations.
As a second generation privately held family organization we take pride in the realization of attaining the important milestone of 60 years of continuous operation in 2012.
