Construction of a 400,000 square foot business park by developer Cedar Coast is underway in Mission, B.C.

Cade Barr Business Park, at the intersection of Cade Barr Street and Dewdney Trunk Road, will be Mission’s largest-ever industrial project. It is Cedar Coast’s first development project in Mission, and represents an over 25 percent growth in Mission’s light industrial base, while also being the first new employment land development in Cedar Valley.

Cade Barr Business Park will be built in phases by Orion Construction to alleviate Metro Vancouver’s industrial space shortage. Phase 1, which includes Buildings A and B, broke ground in the summer and is set to be finished by the third quarter of 2025. Phase 2, Buildings C and D, will follow as the rapidly growing market demands.

“We have long believed that Mission is a special part of the Fraser Valley, and it has been a privilege to collaboratively work with council and city staff to deliver such a significant increase to Mission’s employment lands,” says Aaron Fedora, vice president of development for Cedar Coast. “This project provides the infrastructure for hundreds of new jobs for Mission’s residents and the economic engine for new commercial development in Cedar Valley.”

Buildings A and D will be comprised of large-bay units, with buildings C and B comprising of small-bay units. The small-bay units have garnered significant interest from local entrepreneurs, with more than 85 per cent of Phase 1 already pre-sold. Opportunities still remain in Phase 1 to secure units between 14,000 and 20,000 square feet.

“Cade Barr Business Park epitomizes our dedication to crafting superior products and advancing innovative industrial spaces that improve both community well-being and support entrepreneurs and growing businesses. We look forward to welcoming new businesses to this exceptional development,” said Joshua Gaglardi, president of Orion Construction.
