In order to satisfy and even surpass users expectations, Port Management has set itself the goal of offering its customers the most competitive transit prices and of constantly strengthening the Port s position in North America. To this end, Management is banking on both the obvious strategic advantages of the harbour as well as the dynamism of Quebec maritime shipping industry stakeholders. The Port has substantial assets that will enable it to play an increasingly important role on the North American scene. Indeed, with its water depth of 51 feet, access to two transcontinental railway systems and geographical location, the Port of Quebec is a true continental gateway for cargo moving between North America s industrial and agricultural heartland and the rest of the world. In recent years, Management initiated many capital projects in the port. With these investments, users now have access to new state-of-the-art, high-performance equipment and storage terminals. Management also intends to continue in the same direction by investing large sums of money to upgrade its facilities. Port management also ensures that Quebec s shipping industry is always well represented among the players from the many business sectors using the Port. Therefore, it is working actively with its customers and partners to co-ordinate various actions so that the whole industry will move in the same direction. I firmly believe that the role of Port Management is to remain in touch with the needs of users and provide them with top-notch service. Our goal is to ensure that the Port s many assets will benefit its customers and provide them with efficient access to overseas markets. Lastly, I would like to assure our customers that we are making every effort to enhance our competitive edge and seize upon business opportunities to make the Port of Quebec a true continental gateway to North America.
