LIMAF Company Overview

Linamar Corporation is a Canadian diversified manufacturing company focused primarily on the automotive, industrial, and mobility sectors. The company designs, develops, and manufactures precision-engineered components, systems, and assemblies for global original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) and industrial customers. Linamar operates across two principal industrial platforms: mobility and industrial products, supplying powertrain, driveline, chassis, electrification, agricultural, and access equipment solutions. Its revenue is driven largely by long-term supply agreements with automotive OEMs and equipment manufacturers, supported by vertically integrated manufacturing capabilities and global engineering operations.

The company was founded in 1966 by Frank Hasenfratz in Guelph, Ontario, initially as a small machine shop serving the automotive industry. Over several decades, Linamar expanded through organic growth and acquisitions into a multinational manufacturing enterprise with operations across North America, Europe, and Asia. The company has developed strategic positioning through advanced machining expertise, large-scale manufacturing automation, diversified end markets, and increasing participation in electrified vehicle systems and industrial equipment markets.
