HGreg Joins Forces With Tree Canada for an 8th Consecutive Year

MONTREAL--(BUSINESS WIRE)--On this important day for Earth, HGreg is pleased to announce the return of its “Buy a Car, Plant a Tree” campaign in collaboration with Tree Canada. For the 8th year running, HGreg will be planting a tree for every car sold in its network of dealerships over the next month.

During last year’s campaign, 1,734 trees were planted in the Pointe-au-Père region in Rimouski. More specifically, larch trees were planted in protected peatlands to safeguard carbon-rich soils and combat ecosystem degradation.

“This commitment is one that continues to be essential for us, knowing that we are increasingly fighting climate change,” says Harry Kasparian, Vice-president of Marketing at HGreg. As one of Canada’s largest new and used car dealership groups, we’re aware of the impact our industry has on the environment and want to do our part too.”

In order to increase the number of trees planted this year, HGreg will be taking into account the sales of all vehicles within its group, both new and used, and will involve all of its dealerships.
