Agri Marche’s exceptional management
leadership in the agriculture sector started in
Quebec in 1913 when founder Joseph-Napo-
leon Brochu opened his first general store in
Saint-Henri. Close ties to agricultural produc-
ers helped grow the company, and in 1954,
Mr. Brochu built a mill that offered specialized
animal feed products. In addition to producing
grain-based animal feed today, the company
also operates pig and poultry breeding farms,
as well as a grain transhipment centre.
In the early 1960s, Donald Brochu took over
the family business from his father, and now
the company is headed by his sons Patrice,
Jean-Pierre, and his daughter, Guylaine. Agri
