Notes on this record

  • Region ca-fergus covers Fergus and Elora (Township of Centre Wellington). Headcounts are the Township's 2025 Community Profile figures (approximate); the Township web page shows an older table (Jefferson Elora 600, Wellington Terrace 320, Polycorp 240, Nexans 210).
  • Largest employer not listed as a row: Jefferson Elora Corp. (auto parts, Elora) — 640 employees per the 2025 Community Profile — because jeffersonelora.com and jeffersonelora.ca were unreachable on 2026-10-30, so its own site could not be opened.
  • Other blocks: tradeandindustrydev.com (hosts the 2021 CW Quick Facts PDF) robots.txt disallows ClaudeBot; gmch.fergus.net unreachable (hospital now at gmch.whca.ca).
  • School boards (Upper Grand DSB, Wellington Catholic DSB) and County of Wellington headquarters are in Guelph — see ca-guelph.
  • No funded software/tech company headquartered in Centre Wellington was found.
