Our Company:

At Beanfield, we are about building communities, not just networks. For over 35 years, we have been proud to build, own, and operate an extensive & robust fibre-optic network throughout Toronto, Montreal, and Vancouver. We believe that people are at the heart of everything we do. We're committed to making life better for our customers, our employees, and the communities where we live and work.

Founded in the underserved Toronto neighbourhood of Liberty Village, we've always understood the importance of connection. That's why we committed ourselves to building a fibre-optic network throughout the community and have continued to expand our network ever since.

Now with over 450 employees, we continue to deploy our own independent construction, fibre splicing, installation, network operations and support teams. Our services are delivered to over thousands of commercial and residential service addresses using Beanfield owned facilities.
