2013, 85 years already.

In 2013 we are celebrating the 85th anniversary of the foundation of

our company (originally known as W. H. Perron & Company Ltd).

In todays world of changes and globalization, we are proud to be

celebrating this anniversary. This means that we have been able

to constantly adapt to the changes in our customer needs and to

persistently introduce seed and plant varieties that are always state

of the art.

Although Norseco has, over the years, adjusted its strategy based on

the opportunities that presented themselves, our mission has always

remained the same.

To offer the best selection and highest quality ower seeds, vegetable

seeds and young plants to Canadian growers all the while making

sure they are well adapted to our Canadian climate.

Our product selection is the fruit of constant research by our agrono-

mists who visit with specialized breeders worldwide.

We try out more than 500 new varieties of owers

and vegetables annually, both in Quebec and

in Ontario, in order to offer you the best

possible selections.

We have always devoted the utmost attention

to the quality of our team. The members of

our team are totally dedicated to the quality

of the seeds and the young plants that we

supply. Our continuous education programs

are oriented towards these same main concerns.

We are very proud of the professionalism of our

personnel and are absolutely convinced that they help us

full our mission and always make efforts to provide our customers with

total satisfaction. Without them, Norseco would not be the grand

company that it is today and we earnestly thank them.

You can count on our superior quality service at all levels. Whether

it is our seed storage warehouse, our ordering and shipping coordi-

nation, the speed of our customer service department, all these are

structured to provide the utmost satisfaction to all our customers.

I would like to conclude by sincerely thanking all our customers,

small and large, for entrusting us with their requirements year after

year. Please be assured that we are fully aware of the responsibility

that stems from this trust.

Respectfully yours,

A word from

our president
