ADF Group plans to double the order book of its recently acquired Groupe LAR over the next year and a half, tapping into infrastructure projects across Canada.

ADF Group said Wednesday that it expects to double LAR's order backlog--which stood at 104.5 million Canadian dollars ($74.9 million) as of July 31--by the end of January 2027.

The Terrebonne, Quebec, company said it completed the acquisition in mid-September, and it now intends to implement a growth plan supported by upcoming pan-Canadian projects in hydroelectric development.

The growth will come with substantial investments, it said. ADF plans to invest over C$35 million at LAR's main plant in the Saguenay-Lac Saint-Jean region of Quebec, over the next 24 months, with construction of a new building starting as early as April of next year, the company said.

It also expects to increase the employees working at the plant, which currently has 200 workers.
