Morneau Transport further expands its distribution network
Quebec City, December 11, 2019
Opening of a new terminal in Lévis
The most recent terminal of Morneau Transport, a division of Groupe Morneau, was put into operation on November 25, 2019 in Lévis on the south shore of the city of Québec.
“At Morneau Transport, we are constantly striving for operational excellence. Since its opening in 2007, our Québec City terminal has seen its trading volume increase considerably, resulting in a significant overload. To ensure that we do not compromise our commitment to exceptional service, we have put ourselves in solution mode. The creation of a new terminal on the South Shore seemed logical” explains André Morneau, president of Groupe Morneau.
By setting foot for the first time in Chaudière-Appalaches, a key region in the world of road transportation, the company will be able to provide greater coverage of this territory, from Lotbinière to Montmagny and Beauce area. Morneau Transport therefore wishes to offer a local, faster and better quality service to customers in that region.
Moreover, the addition of this terminal also offers several advantages to Morneau Transport’s collaborators. Indeed, a better distribution of activities between the Québec City and Lévis terminals greatly improves their workload. In addition, since the company is eager to facilitate work-life balance, many of the collaborators who worked at the Québec terminal but live on the south shore have benefited from a transfer, which will improve their quality of life by avoiding spending several hours in traffic congestion.
Morneau Transport’s strength is undoubtedly its expanding network of terminals, which positions the company as the number one player in LTL transportation in Quebec. Symbol of growth, the addition of the Lévis terminal consolidates Morneau Transport’s leading position in this market.
