Harnois Énergies (HÉ) has concluded an agreement to acquire Groupe Suroît. This transaction will allow HÉ to serve the south shore of Montreal more effectively and solidify its position as a leader in the energy sector.
An agreement that makes perfect sense
The two family companies have been business partners for several years and share the same values of respect and authenticity. This is why the opportunities that this long-term agreement could provide were obvious to them. HÉ’s acquisition of Groupe Suroît will provide customers with, among other things, expanded territory, greater efficiency, and a more comprehensive product and service offering thanks to the range of products distributed by both companies.
Founded in 1997, Groupe Suroît is a renowned company that, since its creation, has developed expertise in the distribution of propane, fuel and lubricants as well as the installation of propane-powered appliances.
HÉ is proud to continue the work started by Groupe Suroît. The company is also pleased to welcome more than 90 new employees to its extended family. Marquis Grégoire Jr., the former CEO of Groupe Suroît, will continue to manage operations. His experience, knowledge and close relationship with customers are assets that HÉ acknowledges and wishes to preserve.
“It was important to me to continue to be part of the company and work with Harnois Énergies for the developement and future of the organization This agreement will benefit everyone, including our customers,” says Marquis Jr Grégoire.
Serge Harnois, CEO of HÉ, believes that this transaction can only be beneficial: “We are delighted about this excellent agreement with a long-standing business partner. Expanding to the south shore of Montréal is part of HÉ’s development strategy.”
