ew dealer owners, Benoit Gauthier and Alexis Hoquet-Gaudet of Matériaux Jolette Lorrainville Inc. (Matéraux Jolette Lorrainville) in Lorrainville, Quebec, have joined TIMBER MART to benefit from the group’s national buying power, transparency and lumber and building material distribution.

“We welcome Matériaux Jolette Lorrainville to the TIMBER MART family and look forward to supporting them with the programs, distribution and support they need to expand their business,” says Alain Charbonneau, TIMBER MART’s national business development manager for Quebec.
