WHO WE ARE:
The BMI Group is an award-winning transformative real estate development company focused on reimagining, remediating, and redeveloping legacy properties. Our expertise transforms strategic properties into new industrial, commercial, residential, and hospitality opportunities.

OUR IMPACT:
Our Ready Stating process has brought upwards of 3 million sqft. of infrastructure back online and over 5,000 acres back into use.

In 2023, we received the National Brownfield Rehabilitation Award for our work in Thorold, Ontario, in the "Development at the Community Scale" category, given to organizations transforming underutilized properties across Canada into thriving community assets.

In 2019, Heritage Stratford presented BMI with the James Anderson Award for our work on the Bradshaw Lofts.
