Canac has begun its largest construction project ever, a 625,000-square-foot building at its Drummondville, Que., distribution facility. The company, which is celebrating its 150th anniversary next year, will invest more than $100 million in the project, expanding the campus’s footprint to about 1.2 million square feet.
Canac executives were joined by several dignitaries for the groundbreaking ceremony. They included Drummondville mayor Stéphanie Lacoste, federal and provincial legislators, the local city councillor, and a representative of the region’s economic development office.
