Within the next few years, CargoM aspires to establish Greater Montreal as a recognized intermodal hub, sought after for its operational and environmental performance as well as its contribution to the competitiveness of its business partners and to the economic development of Greater Montreal and of Quebec.
CargoM’s mission is to bring together all Greater Montreal freight transport and logistics stakeholders whose activities promote Montreal as an industry hub around common goals and concerted actions to increase its cohesion, competitiveness, growth and reach.
Started in 2012 and within the economic development strategy of Greater Montreal, the Metropolitan Cluster of logistics and transportation in Montreal, CargoM, complements the clusters that have been deployed in recent years.
Specifically, CargoM will initiate developmental projects, to promote Montreal’s position as a hub for transportation of goods, ensure the sharing of best practices and technologies, influence the harmonization and simplification of regulations, and to promote attraction and retention of labor in different sectors of the industry.
CargoM activities are financially supported by the Ministry of Economy, Science and Innovation (MESI), the Ministry of Municipal Affairs, Regions and Land Occupancy (MAMOT), the Montreal Metropolitan Community (CMM) and all its members.
