Our Team

A Word from the President and Chief Executive Officer


A company’s greatest strength lies in its ability to meet the needs of its clientele and, above all, to anticipate those needs by continuously offering innovative products of superior quality.

Two key elements are essential to meeting this objective: the people who make up the work teams and the equipment and tools that are provided to sustain a constant product quality.

Choosing a team consequently becomes a strategic move. At A. Lassonde Inc., we are proud to have developed a recruitment and selection method that meets these straightforward yet determining criterias. The aptitudes that we look for match those that guide the company for its own actions: customer focus, entrepreneurship, communication and teamwork.

Our corporate culture is built on these clear values arising from the following qualities: daring, an innovative spirit, creativity, tenacity, the desire to grow, the ability to listen and mutual aid.

At A. Lassonde Inc., we are privileged to have the sustained support of a consumer-oriented team that works together, and it is my pleasure to introduce them to you. [contact list]

A. Lassonde inc. is also concerned about everything that involves the environment. Over the past few years, the company has made a considerable effort to ensure adequate wastewater treatment and sound management of the drinking water supply. A. Lassonde Inc. complies with the applicable regulations in selective recycling and packaging recycling as applied by organizations such as Collecte Sélective Québec and Éco Entreprises Québec as well as Corporations Supporting Recycling and Stewardship Ontario.

Over the past few years, in addition to maintaining the above activities, we have made a special effort to reduce the weight of packaging used in our plants. Through these efforts we have attained a recurring annual reduction of approximately 200,000 kg in the weight of plastic PET bottles. With regards to cardboard (boxes and trays) and plastic film, in some areas the reduction in the weight of certain packaging reached 33% of the weight initially used. In short, A. Lassonde continuously strives to respect nature and to work in harmony with it.
