PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT SIGNED BETWEEN VILLE DE LACHUTE AND MONTONI
LACHUTE, QC, Sept. 17, 2025 /CNW/ - Ville de Lachute and Montoni Group are proud to announce the creation of a new partnership for the development of a large industrial site. This collaboration heralds a promising alliance between a resolutely forward-thinking municipality and a developer recognized for its innovative and sustainable projects.
Together, they will launch the development of a modern industrial site of approximately 1.8 million square feet in size, planned to accommodate companies at the cutting edge of innovation and generate significant economic benefits for the entire region.
Strategic location
The future site is in the immediate vicinity of major highways, including Autoroute 50 and Routes 148 and 158, and provides direct access to both the rail network and Mirabel airport. It has the advantage of optimal connectivity to key markets in Montréal, the Outaouais region, Eastern Ontario, and the United States.
Companies that choose to locate here will have the active support of the Ville de Lachute and the MRC d'Argenteuil, which work together to promote local business growth and success.
Located at the crossroads of the Laurentides, Outaouais and Montréal metropolitan regions, Lachute offers proximity to major urban centres, which facilitates both merchandise transportation and workforce mobility. This makes it an ideal site for building, investing and expanding.
"We are very pleased with this agreement with Montoni Group, which further enhances our region's industrial positioning. This strategic partnership will not only maximize the potential of an exceptional city-owned site but also create quality jobs for our citizens. This is a tangible step towards sustainable, growth-generating economic development for Lachute and the entire MRC d'Argenteuil."
