AvranceCorp: From Knowledge to Vision, Building 34,000 Homes for a Sustainable Future
TORONTO, CANADA – OCTOBER 9, 2025 – AvranceCorp Developments, a Canadian real estate leader with over $4 billion in active projects, is proud to share its story — one that began with knowledge and determination and has grown into a transformative force shaping the future of real estate in Canada and beyond.
The Founder’s Journey
The roots of AvranceCorp Developments trace back to Samuel Babarinde, who graduated from London Metropolitan University in 2006. Inspired by his father, a professor in urban planning, Samuel entered the world of real estate straight out of university. He had no financial capital, only knowledge, determination, and a vision to create something enduring.
In 2016, Samuel founded AvranceCorp Developments. With resilience and focus, the company began carving a place in the market. In 2020, AvranceCorp completed its first major acquisition, proving that expertise and vision could translate into tangible results despite financial barriers.
Where We Are Today
From those humble beginnings, AvranceCorp has grown into a Toronto-based developer with a $4 billion portfolio and a pipeline of more than 7,000 residential units. Its developments span multi-phase master-planned communities, high-rise condominiums, purpose-built rentals, and mixed-use projects across Ontario, including Toronto, Ottawa, and Wasaga Beach.
AvranceCorp has built a reputation for taking on complex development challenges and transforming them into opportunities that generate value for both investors and communities.
Where We’re Heading
Looking forward, AvranceCorp has a clear pathway to create 34,000 purpose-built rental units under a REIT platform, designed to deliver long-term, sustainable wealth for investors while addressing Canada’s growing demand for housing.
This vision is supported by:
• Technology Integration – Leveraging AI to strengthen investor engagement, streamline sales, and enhance customer service.
• Global Expansion – Laying the groundwork for projects in the UK, Africa, and beyond.
• Community Focus – Building inclusive, sustainable housing solutions, including 55+ communities and mixed-use neighborhoods.
Executive Commentary
“AvranceCorp was built not on wealth, but on knowledge and determination,” CEO and founder of AvranceCorp Developments Samuel Babarinde said. “From graduating in 2006 to founding the company in 2016, and making our first acquisition in 2020, every step has been about building with purpose. Today, with $4 billion in projects and a clear strategy to deliver 34,000 rental units under REITs, we are committed to creating long-term, sustainable wealth for our investors while addressing one of the most pressing needs of our time: housing.”
The Legacy Ahead
AvranceCorp’s story reflects resilience, ambition, and vision. What began as a founder’s dream built on academic knowledge is now becoming one of Canada’s most ambitious real estate platforms. With billions under development and a roadmap for 34,000 rental units, AvranceCorp is positioned to deliver both strong returns and lasting community impact for decades to come.

AvranceCorp Presents: “The Canadian Food Professor” Dr. Sylvain Charlebois explains controversy with Health Canada and Cloned Meat
TORONTO, ONTARIO — November 20, 2025 — AvranceCorp Developments premiered AvranceCorp Presents, where guest “The Canadian Food Professor” Dr. Sylvain Charlebois discussed Health Canada and cloned meat, one of the hot topics in the Canadian food and agriculture sector.
Charlebois is the senior director at the Agri-Food Analytics Lab at Dalhousie University and is also the co-host of The Food Professor podcast.
“To be honest, I’m a bit surprised by this whole story to be honest,” Charlebois explained to AvranceCorp Presents host Kenai Andrews. “I wrote an op-ed on Oct. 29 so a few weeks ago, basically stating what I was hearing in the industry. Health Canada is about to or has approved the commercialization of meat products, coming from offspring of cloned animals.
“It’s not the cloned animals per se, but its offspring, like babies, essentially.”
“What I was hearing is that Health Canada is considering these products as novel,” Charlebois added. “And when you look at the scientific literature, it is true that if you eat a conventional piece of meat, beef or pork, and a cloned piece of beef or pork, you wouldn’t be able to tell the difference. It’s true.”
“However, in the era of transparency and consumer trust, I thought that perhaps Health Canada would consider seriously to label these products. Well, it actually got worse. Not only that Health Canada is not looking at enforcing a mandatory rule around labelling for cloned meat, but it’s also not planning to send out a press release for media, to let media know what’s happening.
“Probably because they knew that people would not react appropriately.”
Predictably, the issue has generated a lot of online debate towards Health Canada.
Charlebois discussed several topics of concern to homebuyers, homeowners, and even builders on the episode, including his thoughts on the narrowly passed Canadian federal budget and its impact on the food and agricultural industry.
AvranceCorp Presents airs Wednesdays at 2:00 p.m. ET on the AvranceCorp YouTube channel. Click here to watch the entire episode and for more content.

Strategic Focus and Market Expansion
AvranceCorp’s strategy centers on three pillars:
- Diversification — A balanced portfolio across Ontario and select U.S. markets, spanning low-rise, mid-rise, and mixed-use developments.
- Design and Livability — A commitment to architecture, finishes, and community integration that enhance long-term value.
- Partnership Growth — Joint venture and equity collaboration models that share both risk and reward with investors and landowners.
Looking ahead, the company plans to accelerate project completions, expand its partnerships, and pursue new opportunities in markets that combine scenic appeal with economic growth.
