Logistic
An Extensive and Optimized Network
Cascades has many plants, customers and suppliers across North America. Even though we can count on the expertise of an internal logistics division, Cascades Transport, we also need other carriers to meet all of our needs. Our logistics department makes sure to optimize the various transports, supports all operations, centralizes calls for tenders and ensures that deadlines are met.
