After searching far and wide, The Mississauga Food Bank has secured a new facility to call home.

As of Monday, April 3, 2023, The Mississauga Food Bank will be operating out of our new building at:

4544 Eastgate Parkway
Mississauga, ON L4W 3W6

This physical relocation comes at a time of urgent need where food bank usage has risen by almost 60% since 2019, with projections of continued escalations. Our new, larger space is over 43,000 square feet and is equipped to increase our cold storage by 300% to provide more fresh and frozen food to our community. It will also expand our capacity to store the amount of food required to distribute to our network of over 50 agencies and keep our programs running smoothly.

During this transition period, The Mississauga Food Bank will remain open and operational, with a brief pause in operations during the week of March 27 through March 31, 2023, during our physical relocation. Our team is working hard to minimize service disruption to ensure we can continue to provide healthy and appropriate food to neighbours in need through our agencies and programs.

If you would like to contribute as we make our big move, you can continue to support the organization financially throughout this transition by donating online.

Thank you for your dedication and for helping ensure your hungry neighbours have healthy and appropriate food in their greatest time of need. We will be in touch to keep you updated on the progress of our big move and how your gift is making a difference today to impact the lives of hungry neighbours in need tomorrow.

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us.
