Grand Opening of Midea's 4th HVAC Store in Ontario!
On June 15, 2026, led by Alex Huang, President of CCCA (Canadian Chinese Construction Association), the association's directors and member representatives attended the grand opening of the Midea Barrie Store — operated by CCCA member company Ascend Group — joining in the celebration of another important milestone in the company's journey.
Midea is a globally recognized brand in home appliances and HVAC, with products spanning heat pump systems, central and ductless air conditioners, heat pump water heaters, and ventilation systems, providing efficient and energy-saving HVAC solutions for both residential and commercial projects. As demand for green building and energy-efficient homes continues to rise in the Canadian market, high-efficiency HVAC equipment is becoming an increasingly important part of the construction industry's development.
The newly opened Barrie store is Midea's 4th location in Ontario, following Mississauga, Ottawa, and London. The opening of the new store further strengthens the brand's service network in Ontario and reflects the company's confidence and strategic commitment to deepening its presence in the Canadian market.
A Festive Grand Opening with Distinguished Guests
The grand opening was held in a lively and celebratory atmosphere, bringing together numerous industry partners, business leaders, and community representatives to witness this important moment. Several municipal officials attended in person and presented congratulatory letters and best wishes, recognizing the company's contributions to local economic development, job creation, and community building.
Supporting the Growth of Member Companies
As a CCCA member company, Ascend Group has steadily expanded its business footprint in recent years, encouraging results. A CCCA delegation made a special visit to extend its congratulations and presented a flower basket to mark the opening.
In his remarks, President Alex Huang noted that the association consistently follows the development of its member companies and is glad to see them grow and thrive. The successful opening of the Midea Barrie Store reflects not only the dedication and perseverance of the company's team, but also the rising influence and competitiveness of Chinese-owned businesses in the Canadian market.
During the event, CCCA members engaged in in-depth exchanges with company representatives, industry guests, and friends from various sectors, further fostering resource connections and collaborative ties in a warm and friendly atmosphere.
