Leland Industries Inc.

Beginning in 1984 Byron Nelson, having a background in fastener distribution, opened Leland Industries inc. in a rented 1,500 sq. ft. facility in Markham, Ontario. Distribution experience and a boyhood on a farm in Saskatchewan prepared him to recognize opportunities unseen by others.  With five employees and two cold heading machines, Leland began making unique Agricultural Bolts that would quickly become the industry standard for grain storage construction.
