Ian Lafontaine, president

Ian’s roles and responsibilities are related to company advancement, including product and business development. With a mind constantly overflowing with ideas, he is continually looking for new ways to design exclusive, safe and environmentally friendly products. An avant-gardiste, he is constantly on the lookout for new trends in the sector.

Named grand winner of the Élan contest from the Drummond Young Chamber of Commerce in 2014, Ian stood out in the world of business shortly after the launch of his business. Four years later, in 2018, he won a grant from the In the Eye of the Mentor (Dans l’œil du mentor) contest organized by the Drummondville Society for Economic Development. The prize allowed him to travel to Europe to sign a commercial agreement with partners there, and thus continue to manufacture renewable, recyclable and efficient products locally.

Ian is a devoted boss, who listens to his employees and who is not afraid to delegate. Work-life balance and the well-being of his employees are some of his core values. His team’s happiness is crucial and is strongly reflected in the fun atmosphere he has created within Axess Group. Ian is an inspirational, curious human being who is fun to work with.

Les Petits Tapis Creations

Loan and Kelia Lafontaine are two young entrepreneurs whose dad isn’t far from the Axess Group organigram (Do you see a family resemblance?) Their small business project is to create custom, handmade carpets from the remnants of commercial carpets.

They share tasks equally, while celebrating each other’s strengths. Their Facebook page is where you will find the latest projects and you can also place a special order.

Rusty

The Axess family’s big teddy bear, Rusty, is a faithful and loyal companion, always ready to listen even if he isn’t the most pro-active member of the team. From a young age, one of his greatest talents is responding perfectly to the command, « Rusty, carpet! » We wonder where that came from… An expert zootherapist, he is always there to calm, comfort, encourage and have fun with his colleagues at Axess Group.
