About Jacques Lemieux, food wholesaler serving retailers

Since 1969, we have been distributing food products to convenience stores, grocery stores, and independent retailers, with reliable logistics, an accessible private label, and extensive territorial coverage, serving over 3,000 clients.

Our history

On June 5, 1969, Mr. Jacques Lemieux founded his family business in Montmagny. He began by selling and delivering peanuts and nuts to convenience stores and grocery stores in northern New Brunswick. Quickly, in response to merchants’ requests, the product range expanded to include cookies, candies, and other categories. The company also developed bulk product packaging and distribution, which led to hiring additional drivers and extending the territory, initially toward Gaspésie and Bas-Saint-Laurent.

In 1984, land was acquired in the Montmagny Industrial Park, and a warehouse was built. With a rapidly growing clientele, the team was organized around representatives and new delivery staff. Due to space constraints, the warehouse was expanded once, then again in 1998, reaching today’s 24,261 sq. ft. The addition of new distributed companies further extended the territory, which now covers the Côte-Nord, Saguenay, Lac-Saint-Jean, and Beauce regions.

From 1986 onward, the next generation of the family joined the business: Nathalie in accounting, Karl as a salesperson and driver, and Julie in representation. All work to preserve their father’s approach and vision, focused on proximity, reliability, and service.

Today, Jacques Lemieux (Grossiste) Inc. has over 60 employees, including representatives, merchandisers, supervisors, office staff, packers, warehouse clerks, and drivers. This dedicated team serves over 3,000 clients professionally, ensuring efficient distribution and a human-centered service.
