The father and founder, who leaves the presidency happy, “proud, emotional, but serene”, will retain the position of mentor and special advisor to his ex-firm for a few years. Florence has already made BROUILLARD benefit from her vision, doubling turnover, exploring new services and moving the team to new premises (on Grande Allée Est in Quebec City) with an avant-garde design, completely up to date. image of the young 32-year-old entrepreneur.

After highlighting the stories of outfitters in 2023, it is the turn of customers to share their love story with the network of outfitters. The special notebook Loyal Customer Stories presents seven customer testimonials who generously recount their best memories and traditions in outfitting.
