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.
