The Fund is one of Canada's leading manufacturers and distributors of construction building products, including metal roofing, siding and other metal building products. Vicwest Income Fund was created for the purpose of investing directly in the securities of the Vicwest Holdings Trust and indirectly in the securities of Vicwest Corporation and any other direct or indirect subsidiary or partnership interest of the Fund. In accordance with the Arrangement, outstanding Vicwest Shares were exchanged for Fund Units on a 1:1 basis, resulting in the Fund effectively acquiring substantially all of the operations of Vicwest Corporation.
Headquartered in Oakville, Ontario, it fabricates and markets these products under the Vicwest, Mercury Metals, Valley Truss & Metal and RCA Metal trade names. Under the Westeel trade name, the Fund is one of Canada's foremost manufacturers of steel containment products for agricultural grain, fertilizer and liquid storage.
