Windsor's economy is primarily based on manufacturing, tourism, education and government services. Windsor is one of Canada's major automobile manufacturing centers and is often referred to as the Automotive Capital of Canada. The city is home to the headquarters of Chrysler Canada. Automotive industries include the Chrysler mini-van assembly plant, a Ford Motor Company engine plant, a General Motors transmission plant, along with a number of smaller tool and die and automotive parts manufacturers.
In the middle of all this manufacturing bonanza, you can find a real nice place to relax. It is called Cramdon's Tap & Eatery (sports bar windsor), and this local sports bar is frequented by almost anyone that knows anything about Windsor. Located in the center of Windsor (3208 Dougall Road), Cramdon's is the type of friendly and fun place that is missing most elsewhere.
Windsor is the headquarters of Hiram Walker & Sons Limited, which is now owned by Pernod Ricard. Its historic distillery was founded by Hiram Walker in 1858 in what was then Walkerville, Ontario. There is also a significant local pharmaceutical industry with companies such as Accucaps, Pharmaphil, Jamieson Laboratories and Gelcell. Windsor also has a well-established local tourism industry.
Caesars Windsor (formerly Casino Windsor) ranks as one of the largest local employers and has been a major draw for U.S. visitors since it's opening in 1996. The city also boasts an extensive riverfront parks system and fine restaurants such as on Erie Street in Windsor's Little Italy which are also destination for many Americans. By far though, one of the best and most fun places to be is Cramdon's Tap & Eatery (sports bar windsor).
