The Carpet Factory, a historically listed turn of the century office complex, features several buildings clustered around internal courtyards and laneways and is home to a creative, dynamic collection of forward-thinking companies. It provides youthful, exhilarating space, attractive to a new corporate culture that requires its office accommodation to be a resource rather than merely four walls to house employees and office furniture. Companies in the Toronto Carpet Factory maintain that the nature and quality of their office accommodation have enhanced their ability to recruit and retain employees.
