Brothers, Ewart and Edwin McLaughlin grew up on a farm north of Tillsonburg, Ontario. Their first joint business venture was the creation of “The Wedge Cheese House” in 1979 which specialized in retail food entrees.
In 1984 Ewart and Edwin purchased their first industrial building. The 132,000 sq. ft. facility located at 273 Ingersoll Avenue in Woodstock, Ontario was the former Firestone Textiles plant. The building was renovated, and the old machinery was dismantled, making way for warehouse space that continues to be in operation today.
The “Wedge Cheese House” grew into a wholesale and manufacturing facility, making their own frozen entrees, and in 1988, was sold to grow their interests in the aggregate, excavation, and readymix concrete & forming industry.
Over the next 20 years they successfully developed these businesses all the while acquiring more Industrial buildings and Warehouses.
In 2000, the brothers sold their other ventures to focus exclusively on warehousing and commercial leasing, establishing E&E McLaughlin Ltd.
Since then, E&E has expanded its customer base, portfolio, and warehousing capabilities. Today it offers industrial, commercial, residential, retail, and yard space, with leasing from 500 to 500,000 square feet.
Known as the “Building Recyclers,” E&E transforms single-use buildings into multi-tenant facilities, reconfiguring each space to tenants’ needs while maximizing every property’s value.
Through strategic partnerships with Cribbage Group and Nexus Ind REIT, E&E continues to strengthen its portfolio and deliver innovative leasing solutions across many industries.
Today, E&E McLaughlin Ltd. owns and operates over 10 million square feet of warehouse and industrial space throughout Southwestern Ontario.
With decades of experience, the company provides flexible leasing, warehousing, and third-party logistics (3PL) services, delivering customized real estate and supply chain solutions to meet the evolving needs of its customers.
Ewart’s daughters, Kathryn & Kassandra, as well as Edwin’s son, Paul, are the ‘Next Generation’ involved in the business, ensuring that tradition of customer service, integrity, commitment, and common sense continue to be part of the company’s core values.
“As the founder of Drexel Industries, I started my business out of my garage back in 2014 and as you can imagine I quickly ran out of space. I reached out to E&E McLaughlin and leased my first 8,000 square feet of industrial space at 1285 Hubrey Road, here in London. I couldn’t believe how large 8,000 square feet was, and certainly couldn’t imagine ever needing more. Boy was I wrong! From there I moved to the historic Kellogg’s building, added a facility at Wilton Grove Rd. and then another on Huron Street.
As someone who now leases 750,000 square feet from E&E McLaughlin I can tell you each move, addition, and day to day interaction is as easy as it could be, all thanks to E&E. They have been great partners and certainly were instrumental in growing my business.
I am pleased to report that McLaughlin family, in addition to being my landlords, are now great friends.”
