London ON – (October 28 2004) The London Economic Development Corporation (LEDC) together with the City of London is pleased to announce that Pro-Form Tool & Stamping Inc. has been selected as the next recipient of the Featured Company of London Award. Tony Green, President of Pro-Form Tool & Stamping Inc., his wife Bernadette and his son Curtis are to receive a plaque from Mayor Anne Marie DeCicco to commemorate this award at the next city council meeting, Monday, November 1st.
Pro-Form Tool & Stamping Inc. will be featured on LEDC’s site for the month of November at www.ledc.com.
More about the company: In 1983, Tony Green started a tool & design build company primarily servicing the automotive industry. As the company’s customer base and demands grew, Green decided to become a full service operation and tapped into the automotive
stamping market.
“Coupled with our tooling knowledge, we felt that manufacturing the parts that we made our dies for would provide a better offering for our customers,” said Green.
To facilitate this growth of services and clients, the company relocated from the original building on Stronach Crescent into a larger shop on Oxford Street. Once there, Green once again expanded by acquiring the building immediately to the west. This acquisition and expansion increased efficiency and allowed greater flexibility as it separated the tooling efforts from the production area.
Pro-Form Tool & Stamping continues to grow and prosper. In order to accommodate the growth of the business the company once again finds themselves in need of a larger facility. Pro-Form is currently in the process of building a brand new facility in the Skyway Industrial Park located at Airport Road and Oxford Street East.
“This move is in Pro-Form Tool & Stamping Inc.’s best interest,” notes Green. “It takes advantage of all that the City of London offers as we can continue to bolster ourselves within the fabric of this City’s strong economy, great location, and ever growing industrial base.”
Pro-Form Tool & Stamping Inc. employs nine individuals.
