Quebec cabinet manufacturer receives financial support for digital transformation from federal govt.

Quebec-based high-end cabinetmaker, Artisanex, received a repayable contribution of $220,000 from Canada Economic Development for Quebec Regions (CED) to increase operational efficiency, improve its productivity and modernize its production line.

This CED support will enable the business to install an enterprise resource planning system and to acquire various pieces of production equipment, including a digital control machining centre.

“We want to thank CED for its financial support for our automation project. Purchasing our new machinery will enable us to open new markets and continue to satisfy our growing clientele,” said Alex Vézina, president of Artisanex.

The Honourable Marie-Claude Bibeau, Minister of National Revenue, announced the contribution on behalf of the Honourable Soraya Martinez Ferrada, Minister of Tourism and Minister responsible for CED.

“Our government has adopted measures to help businesses that focus on digitizing their operations. That is why we are providing our support to Artisanex, whose success is raising the profile not only of the Haut-Saint-François region, but also of the entire Canadian economy. By helping businesses such as Artisanex equip themselves with what they need, we are helping to build a stronger, more resilient, more sustainable economy,” said Minister Bibeau.
