L’usine est alors situ\u00e9e \u00e0 la Pointe-aux-Li\u00e8vres, sur le site de l’actuelle Village-de-l’Anse, et elle emploie de 300 \u00e0 400 personnes, parmi lesquelles des femmes et des enfants. La manufacture fabrique divers tissus de luxe, dont du cachemire fait \u00e0 partir de laine provenant d\u2019Australie. Le directeur a acquis une longue exp\u00e9rience en Angleterre et aux \u00c9tats-Unis, il g\u00e8re l\u2019entreprise de fa\u00e7on quasi scientifique et appuie la r\u00e9mun\u00e9ration des employ\u00e9s sur le contr\u00f4le du temps d\u2019ex\u00e9cution ; la qualit\u00e9 exceptionnelle de ses produits lui vaut une m\u00e9daille d’or lors de la Dominion Exhibition<\/em> \u00e0 Montr\u00e9al.<\/p>\n

Hautement respect\u00e9e, la compagnie est une fiert\u00e9 locale. Rien d\u2019\u00e9tonnant, par cons\u00e9quent, \u00e0 ce qu\u2019apparaisse sur les \u00e9tiquettes commerciales de la compagnie l’inscription latine du sceau municipal de Qu\u00e9bec, \u00ab natura fortis industria crescit \u00bb.<\/p>\n
