About us

Colabor Food Distributor is a major distributor of the foodservice and retail market customers in the Québec City, Mauricie, Saguenay, Lower Saint‑Lawrence, Gaspésie, New Brunswick regions and part of the North Shore and the Lower North Shore regions. It employs approximately 348 people and distributes nearly 10,000 products from its two warehouses located in Lévis and Rimouski. This division’s customers consist primarily of foodservice operators, specialty food stores, institutional accounts such as healthcare institutions, schools and universities, certain other retail customers, in all reaching approximately 5,000 customers.
Colabor Food Distributor is the result of a merger between four major players in the food distribution market—all of which are proud of their long-standing history: Bertrand (established in 1961), RTD (established in 1949), Edfrex (established in 1945) and Marcotte Alimentation (established in 1930). These companies came together to offer the best customer experience in the industry. By maximizing their synergies, they could cover a wider geographical market while continuing to offer a major product variety.
