In an Aug. 10 press release, company officials said the strategic move positions inventory closer to businesses throughout Quebec, reducing delivery times, improving product availability, and providing greater supply chain flexibility. “This investment reflects TricorBraun’s continued commitment to strengthening our Canadian operations and supporting the growing needs of our customers,” said Yvan Lapointe, regional vice president, TricorBraun Canada. The new distribution centre delivers multiple advantages for customers operating in Quebec’s dynamic market, the press release said, including faster, more reliable deliveries result from locally stocked inventory, shorter shipping distances, and lower exposure to transportation delays.
