The Pearson Airport precinct includes aviation support, cargo, and hotel operations; the Highway 401 and Airport Road industrial corridors house manufacturing, logistics, and pharmaceutical facilities; and Mississauga's medical district — including Credit Valley Hospital and numerous specialist clinics — represents a large Severe-hazard portfolio.
