Serbian Canadians in business

The 2021 Canadian census counted 93,360 Serbian Canadians, about two-thirds of them in Ontario.

About a third live in the Greater Toronto Area. Hamilton has had an organized Serbian community since before 1914, and Niagara Falls has the highest Serbian share of any Canadian city, about 1.5% of residents. Vancouver, Kitchener–Waterloo, Windsor, Ottawa, Calgary and Edmonton follow.

Serbian Canadians are active in construction, trucking, engineering, real estate and hospitality. Mississauga's Serbian Centre and folklore groups like Oplenac anchor community life.

Community life centres on Serbian Orthodox parishes, Kolo Sestara circles, folklore ensembles and sports clubs. BABO doesn't replace any of it. It gives the business owners in those communities one place to find each other, trade referrals and meet.
