Vast-Auto Distribution, a division of Groupe Del Vasto, a leader in the distribution and marketing of automotive parts, has announced that it will open a new distribution centre in the city of Longueuil, Que., in March 2021.

Following its first expansion in Ontario in 2007, Vast-Auto Distribution continued to expand its footprint with the opening of new distribution centers in Eastern Canada.

It has since then, added points of service in Brampton, Scarborough, London and Ottawa in Ontario, in Quebec City in the province of Quebec, and in Dartmouth in Nova Scotia.
