Since our beginning in 1956 in Montreal area , Quebec province in Canada, it has always been important to us to provide products and services in animal nutrition available for the family farm so it can be more competitive.

For the last 54 years, we always offered the latest technologies in animal nutrition. All of this was made possible since we can rely on an active, world-wide network that transfers to us the latest knowledge in animal nutrition. Since our beginning, we have learned to put added-value on ingredients produced on the farm in order to add them into the animal’s ration. We have always been promoting the use of mix-mill on the farm and the use of TMR in dairy herds is part of our daily life. More than ever, we must cope with the context of increasing cost of agriculture inputs. It is essential to use what you are producing on the farm in the most efficient way. It is the best solution to maintain and even to improve the profitability of the local farm and overseas farm businesses.

For the swine and the poultry producers, the latest technologies are put to use in order to give the maximum added-value to your ingredients, whatever they are.

To be able to face the challenge of today’s agriculture, we must be open-minded and proactive, trying new ideas while giving added-value to the ingredients we are producing locally. A very good example of such action is the treatment and transformation of the soya bean into the Special Soya, a high quality product for your animals. Another good example is the development of specific ration in the swine sector using Distillers Dried Grain and Soluble (DDGS).

We keep working without a break, always on the look-out for new way of feeding your animals with locally produced input. That is what we call sustainable development. Our leadership, our capacity to innovate, developing high-performing and suitable products, to excel, to adapt to the markets and its needs are the strengths in our team. Our social responsibility, our values and our mission are aiming to offer an animal nutrition solution that will allow the consumer to eat healthily and above all, not to be worried.
