A Thriving Business
In more than 75 years, Eugene Cloutier has grown to become a reference in the manufacture of moccasins, mukluks, and slippers. The company is recognized for its expert team and the quality of its products made from noble materials. In addition, it is known for its competitive prices, its outstanding customer service, and its prompt deliveries.
A Brief History
In 1945, Mr. Fernand Cloutier founded the company and named it after his father, Eugene Cloutier, who was mayor of Saint-Emile from 1943 to 1945. The beginnings were modest; Mr. Cloutier worked hard with his children and remained active in the company until the age of 83. Growth was constant. In 2005, Mr. Cloutier bequeathed the business to his children, and several years later, in 2014, they sold it to Luc Lauzon and Guillaume Deschênes, the current owners. The Cloutier family's wish to keep jobs in the region was thus fulfilled.

YASMINE
Seamstress — Employed since 2021
How were you welcomed in the company?
Very well, even though I couldn't speak the language. I had applied elsewhere, but they didn't take my application because I didn't speak French. Here, all the employees helped me and I was able to integrate easily. We communicate through a translation application on my smartphone, so I can learn French at my own pace.
What kind of work do you do?
I am a seamstress, I sew fur on the slippers (I love it, it's soft!)
