  Valacta is an organisation of close to 300 employees, which ranks among the 300 most important small and medium size businesses in Québec, according to Journal Les Affaires and Magazine PME.
  In 2008, Valacta was at the 46th rank. (Note: in this ranking, part-time employees are counted into the equivalent number of full-time employees. Hence, 296 employees become 246 full-time).
