Greek entrepreneurs have significantly contributed to various industries throughout Canada, from food service to hospitality and real estate. The "Greek Businesses in Toronto Mapping Project" focuses on documenting and visualizing the presence of Greek-owned businesses in Toronto from the 1910s to the 1960s. Through an interactive digital map, users are able to explore businesses by decade, industry, and location.
By drawing from historical business directories and archival materials, the project maps Greek entrepreneurship across a range of industries. This initiative not only highlights the economic contributions of Greek Canadians in Toronto but also provides a valuable resource for community members, researchers, and the broader public interested in Greek Canadian history.
