A Family Affair Since 1950!
75 Years in The Making
This year, Groupe F. Dufresne celebrates a milestone: 75 years of serving Quebecers (and beyond) with passion and dedication.
From our beginnings to today, we've come an incredible distance: over 1,500 employees and a company now run by the 3rd generation of the Dufresne family!
Whether in our convenience stores, our offices, in the field or on the road, it's thanks to our dynamic team and your trust that we've been able to accomplish so much.
And you can be sure of one thing: we're not stopping anytime soon!
About Us
Groupe F. Dufresne was founded in Quebec City in 1950. Today, it’s a third-generation family business that employs nearly 1 500 people.
It includes companies under multiple brands active in convenience store operations, retail fuel sales, restaurant and food services, home comfort, and transportation logistics under a variety of companies and brand names.
The Third Generation Takes The Helm
In 1950, the Dufresne family—Fernand, Carmen, and their five children Pierre, Jacques, Louise, Lina, and Josée—moved to Rue des Frênes in Quebec City’s Limoilou district.
Seventy years later, Pierre and Jacques are proudly passing the torch to the third generation: Jérôme, Pierre-Olivier, and Francis.
