History
The Sector Offices Branch was created in 1993 within the Sector Development Division of the Ontario Ministry of Economic Development and Trade. In 1995, it became part of the Ontario Ministry of Economic Development, Trade and Tourism.
The branch oversaw several Offices which were based on particular industries. These included: the Office of Automotive, the Office of Aviation and Space, the Office of Construction and Consulting Engineering, the Office of Consumer Goods, and the Office of Plastics, Chemicals and Machinery. These offices took on specific projects to support the industries to which they were targeted.
The Sector Offices Branch ceased to exist in 1996, when the Ministry of Economic Development, Trade and Tourism was restructured. The functions of the branch were redistributed amongst the newly- formed Manufacturing Sectors Branch, Capital Goods and Technology Sectors Branch, and Service Sectors Branch.
