Local Industry
Pembroke's state-of-the-art telecommunications network, proximity to the national capital region, and location along the Trans Canada Highway have established the City as the commercial service hub for business and industry throughout the Ottawa Valley. Pembroke's sustained growth in construction permit values directly reflects strategic development plans being successfully implemented in both the public and private sector. From a world class nuclear research laboratory at Chalk River, to traditional, resource based manufacturers and innovative technology spin-offs, Pembroke's industrial sector benefits from a stable workforce with an average turn-over rate of less than 5%, substantially lower than the national average.
