A new business park has opened at the Mississaugas of Scugog Island First Nation, offering Indigenous professionals and entrepreneurs opportunities to grow their businesses in an “inspiring” atmosphere.

The Minisi Business Park is the only First Nation on-reserve business park in the GTA and recently celebrated its soft opening.

“We have achieved a very inviting and convenient space for entrepreneurs to thrive, and felt it was good timing to remind people that MSIFN is open for business,” Chief Kelly LaRocca said. “By leasing office spaces in our Minisi Business Park, First Nation professionals can have the chance to be part of a thriving First Nation business community in the GTA.”

The availability of modern office spaces for lease for Indigenous business owners gives them a chance to establish or expand in a prime location with exclusive on-reserve tax benefits for First Nation professionals and a range of amenities, she added.
