Overview

History

In 1912, in the Portneuf region, Charles Paradis and a certain Mr. Dery were the very first to produce lumpwood charcoal. In 1955, Mr. Florent Leclerc, originally a trucker and forest operator, decided to embark on the production of charcoal by building a first oven. It was not until 1960, after having completed a contract to build part of the road in Sept-Îles on the North Coast, that Mr. Leclerc and his wife began to produce charcoal full time. In 1961, Mr. Leclerc built two new ovens for a total of three.
