The Agrocentre team has a diversity of agronomic know-how. Market vegetables, field crops, potatoes and small fruits, etc. are the areas we have mastered and for which we never cease aiming to improve our knowledge.
Agrocentre is not just a dealer network whose primary role is the sale of products. We are above all a business dedicated to agronomic service. The desire to offer professional services to our customers is reflected in the quality of our advice and the speed with which we act. The Agrocentre advisors work with the knowledge that results count and that our agricultural producers count on us for their agronomic follow-up.
History
The businesses that function under the brand name Agrocentre have existed for the last twenty years. The origin of the Agrocentre dealerships goes back to 1969. At that time, the business was under the banner of Canadian Industries Limited (C I L) whose co-owners were often private businessmen. In 1989, C I L decided to sell its shares to the Québec Federated Cooperative, also a qualified agricultural supplier of goods and services. It was during the l980’s that the Agrocentre brand name was registered as we know it today. This transition explains why Agrocentre rests on a solid agricultural footing ensuring the efficient transfer of knowledge over the last decades.
Mission
Like any good leader, Agrocentre’s mission is to excel in its field of expertise. Whenever a new member is hired to join the team, the Agrocentre vision is carefully explained so that everyone works with the same business philosophy:
Agrocentre is THE partner of the Québec agricultural producers involved in crop production. We participate in the growth of their businesses and their outlook by providing practical and profitable solutions to meet their objectives and their ambitions.
