Shipp Corporation Ltd.

Shipp Corporation Ltd., a longstanding development firm based in the Greater Toronto Area, is known for its pivotal role in shaping suburban communities in Mississauga. Established in the 1950s by Gordon and Harold Shipp, the company initially focused on residential neighborhoods like Applewood Acres, an area that quickly grew popular as part of Toronto Township’s post-war expansion.

The Shipps were innovators in residential design and sales tactics, pioneering large-scale development practices that were new to the region at the time. Over the decades, Shipp Corporation expanded to commercial and mixed-use developments, solidifying its impact on Mississauga’s urban landscape and helping establish the city as a vibrant part of Ontario's real estate market.
