Jyga share hand with GDL Equipments

Saint-Lambert-de-Lauzon, December 4, 2024

The Lefebvre family, owners of Jyga Technologies and Ferme Aldo, proudly announce their acquisition of a 33% stake in Équipements GDL Ltée. This partnership ushers in an exciting new chapter, merging the strengths of two innovative companies to deliver even greater value to pork producers while staying true to their shared vision and values.

A Shared Vision to Strengthen Support for Producers

This partnership came naturally for both companies, as each excels as a leader in its respective field. By combining GDL’s expertise in custom equipment with GESTAL automated feeding systems, pork producers gain access to cutting-edge solutions that address their unique needs.

The collaboration between these two Quebec-based companies creates a tailored approach that meets the specific requirements of Quebec’s pork production sector.

“GDL and Jyga align perfectly, sharing a commitment to supporting pork producers with top-quality products and personalized service. This partnership allows us to stay true to our individual missions while pursuing new opportunities,” said Alain and Donald Lefebvre.

Daric Grenier expressed his enthusiasm, emphasizing that the partnership secures GDL’s future while opening doors to new markets. Collaborating with a company backed by an engaged next generation provides a strong foundation for growth. Together, they aim to elevate the pork industry to new heights.

A Broader, More Innovative Product Offering

For Jyga’s clients, this partnership ensures easier access to an expanded range of high-quality products, particularly for nurseries and finishing operations.

For Éric Vigneault, co-owner of GDL, the partnership with Jyga Technologies opens the door to big opportunities and allows them to offer a comprehensive range of products to their clients.

The partnership reflects a shared dedication to innovation, excellence, and customer satisfaction, underscoring the human-scale values that define both companies.

Jyga Technologies: The first Automated Feeding Systems for Sows

Jyga Technologies leads the way in designing and manufacturing automated feeding systems for pigs. With a highly skilled team, Jyga distinguishes itself through the in-house development of its GESTAL feeding systems at its Quebec facility.

Owners of Ferme Aldo and Jyga Technologies, Donald and Alain Lefebvre, who are also pig producers, rigorously develop and test all their products in real-world conditions. Since 2014, their children—Roxanne, Samuel, Isabelle, and Sarah-Maude—have joined the company, continuing the family’s commitment to innovation and support for the swine industry.
