Local bottling: Good for the environment and the economy
Products « Bottled in Québec » have significant positive impacts on the environment and workforce in the province. Transporting wine in large cisterns that hold several thousands of litres (instead of thousands of glass bottles), helps reduce the weight of the cargo by nearly half, which helps reduce impacts on the environment by 10 to 20%. The approach is equally beneficial in terms of employment, since the products are assembled and bottled in local companies that employ people here rather than abroad, thus contributing to Quebec's economy.
