In front of more than 500 people, representing the Quebec’s Hardware and Building Materials Industry, Roland Boulanger & Cie Ltee. was awarded the prestigious Prix Patrimoine from the Quebec Hardware and Building Materials Association (AQMAT) at its annual Gala Reconnaissance in Quebec City this past February 18th.
The award honours family tradition in the hardware and building materials industry, celebrating businesses where two or more generations work together. For the Boulanger Group, belonging to this exclusive club of third-generation family businesses is the perfect way to kick off its 75th year in business.
Boulanger credits its success in large part to the unwavering loyalty its customers have demonstrated over the decades, beginning with its flagship product, mouldings. “For the last 75 years, everyone our team, whether their last name is Boulanger or not, has been living and breathing mouldings,” says Alexis Boulanger, the company’s current president. “Boulanger is really like one big family. We love our staff, we love our customers and we love our industry.”
