When
Chaim Burnett started his fresh produce trucking business over
60 years ago, the name Burnac Corporation was far from his mind.
Chaim’s one-man trucking company evolved into a major food distribution company—Provincial Fruit Co. Limited. Today, this food distribution company has developed into a new state-of-the-art produce distribution centre known as Burnac Produce Limited.
In
1964, Joseph, a lawyer, founded a mortgage lending business financing
commercial developments. This business was a predecessor to Burnac
Corporation. Noting the success of its borrowers, a decision was
made to incorporate Burnac Leaseholds Limited, a real estate development
company. In 1976, Burnac began developing shopping centres across
Eastern Canada. Ted, a lawyer, joined Burnac in 1987 as President
of its real estate division. The company continues to be actively
involved in the development and management of commercial real
estate communities. In addition to a number of regional and community
malls, both existing and under development, Burnac’s roster
of commercial properties includes major tenants across Canada.
In 1992, Burnac’s principals seized an opportunity to further
their interests in the business of high-end luxury goods. The
acquisition of Royal de Versailles Jewellers fit well with their
vision. Located at 101 Bloor Street West, Royal de Versailles
offers a distinguished line of fine watches, jewellery and gifts.
The store also offers in-house jewellery manufacturing and repair/restoration
services. Specialty jewellery events are also held several times
a year, attracting clientele from around the world.
Vision. Innovation. Imagination. Leadership. These are but a
few of the qualities that have made Burnac what it is today. With
a successful history of growth and diversity, we are well positioned
to embrace new opportunities as they arise. Burnac strongly believes
in building relationships with companies and individuals who share
our drive for success.
Burnac is a wholly-owned, Canadian, family business with its
headquarters in Toronto, Ontario, Canada.
