Bimbo to close Quebec City bakery

Bimbo Canada is closing its bakery in Quebec City by the end of the year.

Operations will wind down gradually over the balance of the year as production moves to other bakeries.

“By consolidating and continuing to make significant investments in our operations, we will ensure the long-term sustainability and growth of our business,” said Marie-Ève Royer, president, Bimbo Canada. “It was a difficult decision, and I will personally ensure that we do everything possible to ease the impact on our people.”

The bakery employs approximately 141 associates.
