Centrelea is a community in the Canadian province of Nova Scotia, located in Annapolis County. It is on Nova Scotia Route 201.[1]

The former Britex (BRIdgetown TEXtiles) factory is located there. Founded in 1960, as branch of United Elastic Limited based in New York, it manufactured elastic textiles used in a large variety of garments produced in other factories in North America. The plant, once a major employer in the area, closed in 2004, and is currently vacant.[2]
