Uniserve Communications Corporation, a Canadian provider of managed IT, ISP, cloud, and data centre services, has provided an update on its flagship data centre facility in Vancouver. The facility represents a significant milestone in the company's multi-year strategy to evolve from a traditional service provider into a vertically integrated digital infrastructure platform purpose-built for Canadian businesses.
Construction of phase one of the two-phased buildout is on schedule and expected to be operational by September 2026. Additionally, BC Hydro has committed to upgrade the facility's distribution infrastructure to provide up to 3MW of utility power by 2028, supporting phase two of the expansion. The data centre is designed to support high-availability cloud, AI-ready workloads, secure data residency, and scalable managed services for small and mid-sized enterprises across Canada.
Upon commissioning, the facility will materially enhance Uniserve's ability to deliver mission-critical services while maintaining sovereignty, compliance, and performance standards increasingly demanded by Canadian organizations. Gautam Lohia, Chairman of Uniserve, stated that the data centre represents foundational infrastructure for the company's next chapter as Canadian businesses seek trusted, domestic partners to manage their data, compute, and connectivity needs.
The facility is expected to support Uniserve's expanding portfolio of cloud, cybersecurity, managed services, and AI-adjacent offerings, while also enabling greater operating leverage, service differentiation, and cross-selling across the company's existing customer base. Kwin Grauer, Interim Chief Executive Officer of Uniserve, emphasized that this platform allows the company to scale intelligently, improve margins over time, and deliver higher-value services to customers who increasingly want a single, accountable Canadian partner.
Uniserve believes the Canadian market represents a significant and under-served opportunity as SMBs face rising complexity around cloud migration, cybersecurity, AI adoption, and regulatory compliance. By combining owned infrastructure with managed services and customer relationships built over decades, the company believes it is uniquely positioned to capture this demand. The company's ambition is to be the best in Canada at serving SMBs with secure, resilient, and future-ready digital infrastructure.
The company also announced it has engaged Ace Capital Partners, a Toronto-based capital markets advisory firm, to provide strategic capital markets advisory services. Ace Capital Partners will support Uniserve's market positioning, corporate development initiatives and overall capital markets strategy. The company will provide further updates as the facility progresses through final commissioning and enters operational service.
