About Mimico By The Lake

Cooler by the Lake!

The Mimico by the Lake BIA was established in 1985 with an objective to introduce new businesses to our area, attracting residents and organizing events to help cultivate a lively vibe and harbour community spirit among the locals.


Running from Allen Ave to Alexander St., the Mimico by the Lake BIA is home to over 75 vibrant, unique, and Canadian owned businesses. A stone's throw away from the downtown core, our little stretch of Lakeshore moves just a little bit slower. Our days are filled with long afternoon walks along the Waterfront Trail and inspired conversations with our neighbours.

    Support Local

    By Vimal Siva • January 1, 2021
    Support local because it matters, and let us tell you why. New jobs come from local businesses, it benefits your local economy, it makes your community unique & you’ll find unique offerings, customer service is better and it shows you care about your community. Your buying habits can support your local economy, your neighbourhood entrepreneurs, crafters and your community as a whole. The Mimico by the Lake BIA has been a part of a joint community initiative for the last 20 years. Together with the Mimico Village BIA, Lakeshore Village BIA, Long Branch BIA we have worked collectively with our local Councillor, MP, MPP and other community shareholders such as Humber College, TDSC, TCDSB trustees and 22 Division Police Service to address current issues. Although we are all different in many ways, we’re all a part of the same community, the South Etobicoke Community. We share ideas, thoughts and concerns, we collaborate on streetscaping projects to bring uniformity to our business area, we support each other’s events and festivals and we work together to maintain a thriving business area. We want our community to be safe and inviting. A place to live, work, shop and play.
