Sodavex Facilitates Strategic Agreement Between Ray-Mont Logistics and Montreal

Medias, News

Sodavex is proud to have played a key role in the conclusion of the strategic agreement between Ray-Mont Logistics (RML) and the City of Montreal. This agreement, which concerns the integration of Ray-Mont’s intermodal logistics platform operations in the L’Assomption Sud-Longue-Pointe sector, marks a decisive turning point for the company, which acquired the site in 2016.

Represented by Sodavex throughout this multi-year process, RML is finally seeing a positive outcome to a legal saga with the City that began in 2017.

Sodavex’s Strategic Support

Christine Duchaine, founder of Sodavex and one of the attorneys who worked on this case, is honored to have supported Ray-Mont Logistics through these complex and successful efforts:

“The implementation of Ray-Mont’s logistics platform required the sustained efforts of many talented individuals whom I wish to congratulate and thank.”

These efforts notably include the collaboration of RML’s partners: Sanexen, Tact, SoftdB, BC2, and Gowlings.

Thanks to Sodavex’s rigorous work, RML achieved a favorable outcome in both the Superior Court and the Court of Appeal, thereby strengthening its position against the City in this matter.

A Major Legal Victory for a Significant Project

This challenging journey has led to a highly satisfactory result: the establishment of a logistics platform essential for the export of agricultural products and the transport of goods. This project is also expected to significantly reduce truck traffic on Notre-Dame Avenue, contributing to lower greenhouse gas emissions while addressing the concerns of local residents.

This agreement demonstrates the willingness of all parties involved to collaborate in ensuring the successful deployment of this major project, considering local issues, particularly regarding infrastructure and mobility.

Sodavex congratulates Ray-Mont Logistics for its openness and determination throughout these efforts. The result reflects excellent teamwork and marks a significant step in Quebec’s economic development.
