MARCOTTE&#8217;s new building on David-Swan Street will have 14,070 sq. ft. and 20 employees.<\/p>\n<p>In 2020, the City of East Angus will relocate its municipal garage to an adjacent building, which will be better adapted to today&#8217;s reality.<\/p>\n<p>Usinage Marcotte Inc. was founded in 1992 by Hugues Marcotte. Located in Barraute, the company consisted of Gabriel Marcotte (father), his son Hugues and two employees. This small business, occupying a workshop of barely 2,000 square feet, offered machining, welding and fabrication services to the forestry, mining and agricultural sectors.<\/p>\n<p>A desire for growth, a growing clientele, new challenges and an expanded product range fueled the company&#8217;s development, and in 1995 it moved to the Val-d&#8217;Or industrial park to offer better service.<\/p>\n<p>Today, MARCOTTE has 60 permanent employees working in two buildings in Val-d&#8217;Or and soon in East Angus, including an ultra-modern 3,000 sq. ft. paint shop and a 15,000 sq. ft. workshop with state-of-the-art equipment. MARCOTTE prides itself on its dynamic design team, mastery of high-tech software, and competent, efficient project managers.[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Town of East Angus in the Eastern Townships is proud to welcome MARCOTTE (Usinage Marcotte) to its industrial park. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":56168,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_et_pb_use_builder":"on","_et_pb_old_content":"<!-- wp:paragraph -->\r\n<p>Welcome to WordPress.
