The founding generation<\/h2>\n

Aliments ASTA is a second-generation family-run business founded in 1982 under the bold initiative of\u00a0Jacques Poitras<\/a>, an intrepid man of vision.<\/p>\n

Persistent, farsighted and a natural-born entrepreneur, Jacques Poitras acquired a slaughterhouse in Saint-Alexandre-de-Kamouraska and restarted its commercial activities on February 15, 1982.<\/p>\n

This is how Abattoir Saint-Alexandre (1982) Inc. came into being, which later evolved into Aliments ASTA, after several expansion and modernization projects.<\/p>\n

The rising generation<\/h2>\n

Today, St\u00e9phanie and K\u00e9vin Poitras ensure the succession while their father still serves as the head of the business, and as their advisor and mentor.<\/p>\n

\u201cOne must not wait too long before passing the torch. The ownership transfer must be done gradually. My children evolved within the company, they performed each and every task. They know the business well; they understand its structure and share its values. And now, I help them along their progression\u201d, says Mr. Poitras.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

St\u00e9phanie Poitras, general manager, and her brother K\u00e9vin, development and swine operations manager, are the future of this successful business, an acknowledged world leader in the primary pork processing industry.<\/p>\n

They are perpetuating their father\u2019s original vision, to which they add their own personal touch while dreaming big in terms of development and market positioning.<\/p>\n
