Minotaur is Twenty!

Minotaur Software has just turned twenty and we want to say thank you to our customers for making our success possible. We have learned a great deal from you over the years and the software has undergone many exciting changes from our early days. When we first began, we helped manufacturers and distributors ‘computerize’ their bookkeeping and production processes. Because businesses had just one computer, the Minotaur crew worked mainly evenings when the customer wasn’t using the computer. Our first office space was at 473 Garyray drive in Weston (a suburb of Toronto—photo above). Minotaur made a few moves over the years and in anticipation of the opening of Hwy 407 (which gave us better access to all parts of the Greater Toronto area), in 1995, we moved just north of the highway to 12 Automatic Road in Brampton. In 2003, we purchased a building just up the street at 18 Automatic Road, Unit 27 which we call home today.

Minotaur continues to be dedicated to offering mid-sized manufacturers and distributors a technologically competitive product at a fair price while ensuring that the software adapts to your unique business needs, so you don’t have to adapt to it. As our industry is continually changing, we remain dedicated to helping you get the most out of your Minotaur investment. A great way to stay up to date on Minotaur’s emerging technology is to attend our annual user conference which we will be holding October 28, 2005
