Chatham Business Gets $1M From Provincial Fund

A Chatham business is on the receiving end of some provincial funding.

The Ontario government is earmarking just over $1-million to Dajcor Aluminum, from the Southwestern Ontario Development Fund.

Officials say the investment will allow the aluminum fabrication and extrusion company to invest in new state-of-the-art fabrication equipment, needed to explore new business opportunities.

Dajor says that includes things like providing components for light rail transit door assemblies, ventilation systems, LED light enclosures and high-end furniture tracks.

The funding covers up to 15% of the project's $10.2-million cost, and will support the creation of 35 new jobs.

The project is slated for completion by the end of 2018.
