TORONTO — JLL, a global provider of real estate services, is celebrating 25 years of operations in Canada.

Now headquartered in downtown Toronto, JLL first established its Canadian operations in Montréal in 2000.

The company has since grown to increase its presence, with leasing, investment sales and acquisitions, value and risk, property management, facilities management, project and development services, workplace strategy, and consulting across various sectors.

“As we reflect on 25 years in Canada, we are filled with immense pride and gratitude,” said Alan MacKenzie, CEO of JLL Canada, in a statement. “Our journey has been defined by the trust of our clients, the dedication of our employees, and our relentless pursuit of operational excellence amid changing market dynamics. As we look to the future, we remain steadfast in our mission to shape the future of real estate for a better world, create opportunities, and build a more sustainable and inclusive future for all Canadians.”

The company is celebrating its footprint of over 3,200 employees across 11 offices nationwide, delivering more than $1 billion in projects and managing 134 million square feet across Canada. It is also taking pride in its inclusivity and diversity efforts as well as its longstanding partnership with the Breakfast Club of Canada, surpassing the milestone of $1 million raised since 2015 to support children’s nutrition.

“Our partnership with Breakfast Club of Canada, annual award programs, and the recognition we’ve earned for both industry leadership and social impact underscore our dedication to making a positive impact in the communities we serve,” added MacKenzie. “We believe that our success is intrinsically linked to the well-being of Canadian communities, and we’re proud to contribute to a brighter way forward.”
