In 1978, Mr. Richard Fortin, the son of the previous owner, becomes the sole owner of the company, now called Quéabrique. In 1981, a major fire ravaged the company, which forced its closure in 1985.

Quéabrique employs about fifty workers . An East Angus company transports these products to outside buyers.
