Schneider Electric Opens New Distribution Center in Halton Hills to Boost Canadian Energy Infrastructure

Energy management firm and microgrid integrator Schneider Electric has opened a new 130,000-square-foot distribution center in Halton Hills, Ontario.

The new facility, which houses equipment for electrification customers in the commercial, industrial, residential and infrastructure sectors, is being operated in partnership with CEVA Logistics.

The companies say the Halton Hills facility was strategically located to ensure faster delivery of electrical components and equipment across Canada. Schneider Electric has strengthened its manufacturing and distribution investment in the nation, including expanding its production facility in Brossard, Quebec earlier this year.

“The opening of the Halton Hills distribution center demonstrates our commitment to Canada and to providing fast, reliable access to critical electrical infrastructure components,” said Emily Heitman, President of Schneider Electric Canada, in a statement. “This investment will help support Ontario’s growth, strengthen local supply chains, and create new jobs for the community.”

CEVA’s Halton Hills facility has also deployed Manhattan Associate’s Active Warehouse Management and Order Management systems. The advanced platforms accelerate the integration of new technologies for improved operational efficiency and strengthens Schneider Electric’s supply chain resilience in Canada.

“This new distribution centre represents a powerful step forward in our partnership with Schneider Electric,” said Jeff Wiedwald, Vice President of Contract Logistics for North America at CEVA Logistics. “By combining Schneider’s commitment to sustainable energy with CEVA’s global logistics expertise, we’re enabling faster, smarter, and more resilient supply chain solutions across Canada. Together, we’re not just moving products—we’re powering progress and supporting communities.”

Canada’s raised its national investment in clean energy technologies 19% last year to $35 billion, elevating it to No. 8 among global investors for decarbonization and electrification, according to Clean Energy Canada and annual trends report by BloombergNEF. This is the country’s first time in the top 10 for that global ranking.
