The Construction Source

All the best, The Editorial Team We will keep adding business units that enhance our offering and separate us from our competition. “ ” Editor From The Dear Reader, Welcome to the latest issue of Construction Source Canada, the magazine that highlights the best in building and building products across the country. With this edition, we close the chapter on 2022. It was a challenging year, with ongoing supply chain challenges following the pandemic as well as ongoing labour shortages – but in the face those challenges, the companies featured in our pages have continued to grow and get better at what they do. Our cover story this month is a good example – Platinum Signature Homes is an Edmonton-based builder of acclaimed custom homes that we’ve covered before. This time out, we talked to founder and president Sunny Sahni about their last couple of years specifically. In those years, despite the difficulties they have faced, they have grown, they have won awards, and they have been recognized as a ‘Holmes Approved Builder.’ We talked to Sunny all about that recognition. Also featured in this issue is Elgin Innovation Centre (EIC) – a business park in Aylmer, Ontario, that’s home to 35 companies with over 500 employees. Helping their tenants grow and thrive even during challenging times is their whole reason for being. They were founded after the 2005 closure of an Imperial Tobacco Plant that eliminated a lot of jobs in their community. Ever since, the goal of EIC’s founders – including Jack Baribeau, who told us their story – has been to create a space that “enables innovation, job-creation, and diversification so that this property can continue being a vital piece of the local economy.” There’s also Norseman Construction – they are a GTA builder specializing in the full spectrum of home improvement projects, and they are another company that has been growing steadily and improving continuously, even and especially over the past couple years. According to Kris Potts, president and founder, the key to their success has been their innovative use of technology. He talked to us all about how that technology works and how it has helped them thrive as a renovator. For more stories like those – stories of innovation, growth, and continuous improvement – just keep flipping the pages. Until next year – have a happy holiday season, and thank you for reading!
