BRAMPTON,
October 27, 2008 – BMO Bank of Montreal today opened
the doors to an 8,000 square foot branch at 52 Peel Centre Drive
at the corner of Queen Street and Dixie Road in Brampton, Ontario.
This branch has been relocated from 25 Peel Centre Drive in the Bramalea
City Centre.
“Our new branch offers a larger space with private offices where
we can have conversations with customers,” said Lucy Marra, Branch
Manager, BMO Bank of Montreal. The approach we take with all of our customers
is aimed at ‘making money make sense’ and we are committed
to providing the clarity customers need to make sound financial decisions.
This commitment has never been more relevant than it is now given today’s
economic realities,” added Ms. Marra.
BMO spent $2 Million on the state-of-the-art branch to serve this fast
growing community.
“Brampton sports
one of the fastest growing populations among Canada’s large urban
areas,” said Robert Kavcic, Economic
Analyst. “According to the latest Census, Brampton recorded robust
6.6% annual population growth between 2001 and 2006. The city also boasts
the youngest population in the GTA (the median age is just under 34)
and a diverse group of businesses in sectors ranging from manufacturing
to consumer products. This combination of diversity and population growth
should continue to support the local economy in the years ahead”,
added Mr. Kavcic.
Local residents can benefit from familiar faces and a knowledgeable
staff who will provide each customer with a tailored banking experience.
