Studebaker operated a plant in Walkerville, Ontario, from 1910-1936, and later in Hamilton, Ontario, from 1948-1966.<\/p>\n<p>Studebaker rapidly expanded its automotive market share in the early 20th century after acquiring the Detroit-based E-M-F automobile company in 1910. E-M-F had a ready-made product and production<br \/>\nfacilities , but lacked Studebaker\u2019s vast sales network. Studebaker, in turn, had over a half century of name recognition and a world-wide dealer system.<\/p>\n<p>Studebaker\u2019s rapid growth was fueled in part by increased export sales.\u00a0 By establishing a Canadian plant, Studebaker could export products from this factory duty-free to all territories within the British Empire as well as supplementing production from the company\u2019s main plant in South Bend.<\/p>\n<p>During its four decades of operation, Studebaker of Canada, Ltd., continuously operated at a profit. Its administration strove to provide a healthy working environment and build a quality automobile. Today,<br \/>\nCanada enjoys a large and active number of Studebaker owners due in no small part to the company\u2019s long history there.<\/p>\n<h2>ABOUT THIS SERIES<\/h2>\n<p class=\"Default\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.studebakermuseum.org\/exhibition\/canadian-made-studebaker-of-canada\/\"><i>Canadian Made: Studebaker of Canada <\/i><\/a>was on display at the Museum in 2016 This <a href=\"https:\/\/www.studebakermuseum.org\/blog-category\/canadian-made-studebaker-of-canada\/\">series of articles<\/a>\u00a0comes for the displays from that exhibition.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Many are surprised to learn that Studebaker produced automobiles in Canada over 44 years, which was one year longer than Studebakers were made in South Bend.
