About Simcoe County Office of Economic Development

Simcoe County - The Ideal Business Location
​​​Ideally situated just north of the Greater Toronto Area stretching from the shores of Lake Simcoe to Georgian Bay, Simcoe County's combination of low real estate costs, access to markets and strong transportation network makes it a great place to live and do business.
  • Canada leads the G7 with the lowest overall tax rate on new business development. Ontario's combined federal and provincial tax rate (28 percent) is the lower than the average American state (36 percent) for manufacturing firms.
  • Canada led the G7 countries in economic growth over the past decade (2003-2012).
  • For the seventh consecutive year, the World Economic Forum has declared Canada's banking system to be the soundest in the world.
  • According the World Bank, Canada is one of the most multicultural countries with world-class universities, a universal health care system, clean and friendly cities, and second highest standard of living in the G7, as measured by GDP per capita.
  • Canada is your gateway to the world.  The United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA​) provides companies with free-trade access to a market valued at US $18 trillion and new trade agreements are increasing accessibility to new markets daily.  Once the Canada-European Union Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement (CETA​) comes into force, companies with a Canadian presence can access a market of nearly 1 billion consumers and a GDP of over US $35 trillion.​​
  • Ontario contributes over 38 percent of the national gross domestic product for Canada and supplies 54 percent of Canada's manufacturing shipments.
