Our company<\/h2>

\"\"The 1990s marked an important period in the history and evolution of hunting lures in North America. Thanks to the speed of information and the advent of new technologies, among other factors, the 2000s have ushered in even more advances and changes in hunting techniques in Canada.<\/p>

Inspired by the times, Nicole and Jacques Monette turned their vision and passion for whitetail deer into a family business, Monette Outdoor’s, in 1991. The couple, who had raised white-tailed deer for pleasure since 1988, embarked on research to broaden their knowledge. Their efforts led to the development of a range of high-quality,game-attracting products for hunters. The Minist\u00e8re de l\u2019Agriculture, des P\u00eacheries et de l\u2019Alimentation du Qu\u00e9bec (MAPAQ) approved the production facilities of Monette Outdoor’s in 1991.<\/p>

A businessman by profession, Jacques had been a hunting pioneer for more than 50 years. Nicole had a background in production and accounting. Together they formed an unbeatable team, mapping out the future of Monette Outdoor’s.<\/p>

In 2000, the couple\u2019s daughter Annie joined the family business and took over the reins of production. Their son St\u00e9phan came on board in 2003. His arrival instilled new life into the business. An avid hunter and graduate chef of the Institut de tourisme et d\u2019h\u00f4tellerie du Qu\u00e9bec (ITHQ), St\u00e9phan applied his culinary skills to experimenting with and developing a variety of recipes for wild game. His work cast hunting in a new light and led to products enriched with minerals, proteins and probiotics. The reputation of La Monette Outdoor’s soon spread throughout America and Europe.<\/p>

\u00ab Monette Outdoor’s line of pheromones was born, creating an unprecedented revolution in hunting in America and expanding into Europe. \u00bb<\/strong><\/em><\/p><\/div>\n \t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Achievement<\/h2>

\"\"<\/p>

After a decade of operations, the company, located in Amherst near the Laurentian town of Mont-Tremblant, was awarded the Bronze Medal of the Ordre national du m\u00e9rite agricole and later the Silver Medal in 2003. The quality of the company\u2019s products and production facilities was recognized when it was shortlisted as a Gold Medal finalist in 2013. For the first time in 108 years, a white-tailed deer breeding farm joined the ranks of Quebec\u2019s top producers. In 2007, the company embarked on a research and development program on its 500-acre fenced outdoor laboratory,using urine collected from 150 deer in captivity. With almost all of St\u00e9phan\u2019s and Annie\u2019s energies now consumed by the business, it became necessary to hire staff.<\/p>

In 2010, after five years of laboratory research in collaboration with accredited chemists, the company succeeded in synthesizing pheromones. Monette Outdoor’s line of pheromones was born, creating an unprecedented revolution in hunting in America and expanding into Europe.<\/p><\/div>\n \t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
