The retail business offers a wide variety of everyday goods, from basic everyday items to gourmet products.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Mr. Jean-Jacques Cl\u00e9ment has been the owner since January 2024. Mr. Cl\u00e9ment, who has lived in the municipality for 22 years, proudly takes over from Mr. Martin Dupuis, who has held the torch since 2000. Mr. Cl\u00e9ment is enthusiastic about the idea of keeping the March\u00e9 Chertsey alive, as it contributes to village identity and heritage preservation, attracting not only local customers on a daily basis, but also tourists curious to discover the village.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Mr. Cl\u00e9ment has recently added a new section focusing on pet supplies, as well as food for dogs and cats, and farm animals such as chickens, ducks, rabbits, goats, pigs and more. What's more, it's now possible to buy accessories of all kinds, including feeders, cages, waterers and much more. Another great new feature is the addition of a division dedicated to products from local artisans. To date, it's possible to purchase products from a dozen artisans who exhibit in the store. These are great new features for our customers, who can now make their everyday purchases more locally and with less travel time.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignleft size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"462\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/matawinie.qc.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/1000005223-002-1-462x1024.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-7124\" style=\"width:269px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/matawinie.qc.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/1000005223-002-1-462x1024.png 462w, https:\/\/matawinie.qc.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/1000005223-002-1-135x300.png 135w, https:\/\/matawinie.qc.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/1000005223-002-1-768x1704.png 768w, https:\/\/matawinie.qc.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/1000005223-002-1-692x1536.png 692w, https:\/\/matawinie.qc.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/1000005223-002-1-923x2048.png 923w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 462px) 100vw, 462px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Jean-Jacques Cl\u00e9ment holds a vocational diploma (DEP) in interior systems installation, and has over 25 years' experience in the field.
