Canada, QC: Yakima Chief Hops opening distribution warehouse in Brossard

Yakima Chief Hops (YCH) is opening a distribution warehouse in Brossard, Quebec on the south shore of Montreal in the summer of 2023. The new facility will hold over one thousand pallets of hops, create four new jobs, and make YCH the largest hop supplier in Canada, the company said in a press release.

“This is a huge turning point for the whole Canadian brewing industry. I’m excited for our brewers. Long-term customers have been asking for this, now all current and future customers will be able to get the best quality hops on the market at a great price, in a timely manner” says Luc Beaulieu, Director of Sales Canada.

All YCH brands, including Cryo™, extracts, and NZ Hops, will be available to pick up or ship from the new facility. The premium hop hub will be poised to serve Quebec, Ontario, all the Maritime provinces, and Manitoba.

Onsite construction will begin in April, adding refrigeration systems for exceptional cold storage ability. In September, the space will be fully operational, and as harvest gets underway, 2023 crop-year hops will be available for shipment.
