History

Located in Salaberry-de-Valleyfield, Oxygène Régional has been in operation since 1965.
The company distributes its gas cylinders throughout the Suroît region and also serves Southwestern Ontario through its branch in Cornwall.

Founded by Jos Gaboury, with unwavering support from his wife Marielle, Oxygène Régional was built on hard work and commitment. The company’s very first employee, Denis Rochefort, is still with the team today, working in sales.

What began as a small and modest business has grown to become a leader in its field. Oxygène Régional is, above all, a family story. In 1979, Pierre Gaboury joined the company, worked his way up to president, and eventually became co-owner alongside his brother-in-law Serge Laplante. His wife Maryse also contributed to the business for many years.

Today, the next generation has taken the reins, with Yannick Gaboury, Pierre’s son, at the helm along with his partners Guy Courchesne and Michel Picard. Together, they carry on the family legacy with passion and a forward-looking vision. Oxygène Régional now has nearly 20 employees, a fleet of 7 vehicles, and continues to crisscross the region to better serve its growing clientele.

The welding market represents the core of the company’s activities. In-store, customers will find a wide range of products: helmets, torches, welding machines, tools, production equipment, plasma cutting machines, and more. Recently, the company added vending machines to complement its lineup of products and services, further enhancing convenience and efficiency.
