New Strategic Location for Amazon Canada
From its strategic location in the heart of the ALTA industrial park, just southwest of Montreal, the Coteau-du-Lac fulfillment center strengthens Vaudreuil-Soulanges’ position as a critical transportation and logistics hub.
Andrée Brosseau, Mayor of Coteau-du-Lac, Patrick Bousez, Prefect of the Vaudreuil-Soulanges RCM, Joanne Brunet, General Manager of DEV Vaudreuil-Soulanges and Francine St-Denis, General Manager of the employment organization Réseaux, joined the opening of the new Amazon facility with members from the Vaudreuil-Soulanges regional county municipality.
“The opening of the sort center in Coteau-du-Lac is a testament to the competitiveness and strategic location of our city. As we enter the post-COVID recovery period, the center’s opening will play a significant role in the entire regional—and even Quebec’s—economic ecosystem.”
Andrée Brosseau, Mayor of Coteau-du-Lac
This Coteau-du-Lac brings 500 full-time jobs with comprehensive benefits starting on day one. It is part of Amazon Canada’s commitment to generate 15,000 new positions across the country this fall.
