About the company
Coachwood Group is a Windsor-based portfolio of businesses that owns Biosteel, Canadian Protein, Coachwood Golf & Country Club, Coachwood Capital and a few other companies.
Canadian Protein was just recently awarded ?Company of the Year? at the 2024 Business Excellence Awards, while Coachwood Golf & Country Club boasts one of the region's best golf & dining experiences.
Biosteel, our most recent acquisition in 2023 was a powerhouse of a brand that scaled unsustainably and it is our mission to turn it around and continue to offer customers incredible products.
Our passion for success begins with CEO Dan Crosby, who started from humble beginnings selling tubs of protein from his basement. More than 15 years later with nearly 200 employees across several businesses, the same relentless pursuit for success still lies at the heart of everything we do today!
