About us
In 1963, Mr. Euclide Lefebvre, who was a mechanic, moved from Montreal to the small town of St-Lambert-de-Lauzon, in the region of Quebec city. That’s where he decided to raise his kids. He bought a small land while having in mind to have his own mechanic shop, but everything turned out pretty different. He started his farm who he operated with his wife Madeleine Gagné. In 1988, Mr Lefebvre sold the farm to his two younger sons, Alain and Donald.
In a little less than 30 years, the two brothers are now the owners of a 2200 sows farm with about 2500 acres of culture. With their strong mind of entrepreneurs, Alain and Donald wanted more challenges… that’s where Jyga Technologies came in. Since 1994, Jyga’s systems offer many possibilities to optimize the productivity of each sow and the follow-up of the herd. Strong of its expertise and having developed the first computerized swine feeding system in the world. It is not surprising to see this company being distinguished from the others by the diversity of its competences. Now the company has expanded worldwide.
The Lefebvre’s family values aren’t going anywhere, since Alain’s and Donald’s children will assure the continuity of the company. In fact, Roxanne Lefebvre , Donald’s older daughter, is already working full-time as administrator.
