Peterborough Canoe Company
Years in Business
1892-1961
The Peterborough Canoe Company was formed in 1892 in Peterborough, Ontario, just weeks before the Ontario Canoe Company burned down in May 1892. Col. James Z. Rogers, former president, general manager and one-third owner of the Ontario Canoe Company, owned 4% of the new company and became manager in 1893. The company continued to build the wide-board, cedar strip and cedar rib canoes much like the Ontario Canoe Company had before them.
The Peterborough Canoe Company purchased the William English Canoe Company in 1915, and continued to offer English canoes. In 1923, the Peterborough Canoe Company and Chestnut Canoe Company were collected together under Canadian Watercraft Limited, which also acquired the Canadian Canoe Company in 1928.
The Peterborough Canoe Company closed its doors in 1961.
