About This Seaport
Built around heavy and process industry, the Port of Bécancour sits on the south shore of the St. Lawrence between Montréal and Québec City and serves a roughly 4,000-hectare industrial park. Operated by the Société du parc industriel et portuaire de Bécancour, the year-round, ice-free facility handles alumina, coke and magnesite as its core bulks, alongside steel, breakbulk, project cargo and wind-turbine components across five berths and a Ro-Ro ramp. Annual traffic runs to about 170 vessels and some 2 million tonnes. Hinterland links combine CN rail with highways 30, 55 and 20, supporting Quebec's mining and aluminium sectors. Scheduled container shipping is not part of the port's profile. Shippers needing boxes use Montréal, while nearby Trois-Rivières offers additional bulk and breakbulk capacity.
