Vision

Mr.Christian Bouvier,the C.E.O of Agrocentre Saint-Hyacinthe, has been a sales rep since 1995 and a shareholder since 1999. He obtained a Bachelor’s degree in Industrial Relations from Laval University in 2003, specializing in the management of human resources.

Mr. Jean-Denis Beaudin is vice-president and responsible for production and administration. He completed his university studies in agronomy in 1986 but it was not before 1989 that he began his career as a rep for Agrocentre Saint-Hyacinthe. Ten years later, he loved the company so much that he decided to buy it!

Both hold the environment in high regard and recognize the importance of preparing the next generation of agricultural producers by hiring summer trainees. They are always in the forefront of new technologies to better serve their customers. In addition, they conduct different field tests in order to offer producers the best agricultural services available.

The future for agriculture looks promising with the development of the market for bio-fuel and the world wide demand for quality foods. The Agrocentre Saint-Hyacinthe team believes that agriculture will again take its place as an essential driver of the economy.
