Jeffery Moyle, CEO Rexel Canada has announce that Rexel Canada has acquired Jacmar Automation, a leading industrial automation supplier based in Quebec. This acquisition is in alignment with Rexel Canada’s Accelerate 28 strategy and strengthens their presence in the Quebec market.

Since its founding in 1994, Jacmar Automation has built a reputation for delivering exceptional services, support, and innovative solutions in industrial automation. With multiple facilities across the province Quebec, Jacmar has been a trusted partner for over three decades, serving a diverse range of clients throughout Canada and beyond.

“As we move forward, the Jacmar Automation team will work closely with Nicholas Zigayer and his Westburne Quebec team, all while maintaining its current leadership structure. This partnership is set to enhance local market support and create synergies that will empower both Jacmar and Westburne to expand their footprint in the vital Canadian industrial sector,” Moyle said via LinkedIn.

“This acquisition is a significant milestone for Rexel Canada, highlighting the immense potential we see in our industrial market and creating valuable opportunities for collaboration between Westburne Quebec and Jacmar Automation. It also complements our investment in Apex Automation Ltd in Alberta, further enhancing the momentum we’ve built within the service segment of our growth strategy.”

“A heartfelt thank you to Gabriel Jacques, Audrey Heurzeau (Pedreira) and Véronique Douville for their hard work in closing this transaction, as well as to the leadership teams at both Jacmar and Westburne Quebec for their dedication in bringing this opportunity forward,” said Moyle.
