Avro Canada

Avro Canada, officially A. V. Roe Canada Limited, was a Canadian aircraft manufacturing company that existed from 1945 to 1962. It was founded in 1945 as an aircraft plant and within 13 years became the third-largest company in Canada, and one of the 100 largest companies in the world, directly employing over 50,000 people. Avro Canada was best known for the CF-105 Arrow, but it was an integrated company with diverse holdings.

Following the cancellation of the CF-105 Arrow, the company ceased operations in 1962.
