Consequently, freight and postal services need to be maintained in order to meet the high demand from citizens.<\/p>\n<h2>Food supply and distribution: essential transport and logistics services<\/h2>\n<p>Even during a pandemic, the supply and distribution of food items via <a href=\"https:\/\/www.econonord.com\/en\/truck-transportation-quebec\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">truck transport<\/a> is essential.

However, in order to offset the decline in ridership, various public transit companies have reduced their services by 20% to 45%.<\/p>\n<h2>Contact Transport Econo Nord for reliable transport and logistics services<\/h2>\n<p>Even during an economic downturn, our transportation and logistics services are considered essential.
