CONSTRUCTION BEGINS ON RIVIAN'S NEW QUÉBEC SERVICE CENTRE
A new EV destination in Laval, designed and built by MONTONI Images available here LAVAL, QC, July 16, 2025 /CNW/ - Electric-vehicle manufacturer Rivian, in partnership with Montoni Group, held a groundbreaking ceremony today marking the official start of construction on its new service centre in Québec. The event, held in Laval, was attended by the city's mayor, Stéphane Boyer. The planned facility is a key step in the expansion of Rivian's Canadian operations and speaks to the company's commitment to better serving its Québec customers. Rivian's project in Laval addresses a concrete need for a permanent service point that is accessible and conveniently located for Québec drivers, with construction entrusted to local partners and talent. A new chapter for Rivian in Québec After initially serving customers in a temporary service centre in Town of Mount Royal, Rivian is taking a new step with this permanent facility in Laval. Québec and its people, with their strong affinity for wide-open spaces, nature and the outdoors, perfectly reflect the spirit of Rivian. With its new centre in Laval, the brand will forge closer connections with that culture and provide Québec EV drivers with local service that is accessible and adapted to their needs. This project arrives at a pivotal moment for Rivian in the lead-up to the launch of its new R2 model, a five-seater compact SUV set to debut in Canada in 2026. To support its growth, the company is expanding its service network through a combination of physical centres and mobile vehicles that will serve customers directly. As it does with all its service points, Rivian will provide its Québec customers with a full range of services covering the entire lifecycle of its vehicles. "The Greater Montreal Area is critical to our service footprint across Canada. This new service, delivery and demo center will allow us to provide robust support to Rivian owners in Quebec while allowing even more prospective customers to experience our class-defining electric vehicles." – Nick Harterre, Policy Manager Rivian A sustainable centre, designed and built in Québec To bring this project to fruition, Rivian engaged with Montoni Group, the Québec leader in sustainable real estate development. Their collaboration is founded on a shared vision: to create innovative, inviting spaces. The new service centre, covering over 28 000 square feet, will be built to stringent environmental standards, targeting LEED® v4 certification. It will use low-carbon materials and feature EV charging stations as well as environmentally friendly landscaping, all in support of a building designed to last and to foster clean mobility. In addition to these green-building qualities, this project will have a tangible economic impact in Québec. Designed and built using local expertise, the service centre will generate specialized, lasting jobs in the region, strengthening the local economy and industrial fabric. "Our ambition is to build locally, here in Québec, with partners who engage with our vision of respect for the environment and innovation. This project illustrates a commitment that we share with Rivian: to do better for our customers and for the planet. We are proud to be creating, with this project, a space that reflects that sincere approach." – Dario Montoni, PresidentMONTONI About Rivian Rivian (NASDAQ: RIVN) is an American automotive manufacturer that develops and builds category-defining electric vehicles and accessories.

MONTONI UNVEILS ITS FIRST-EVER ESG REPORT Français
LAVAL, QC, June 26, 2025 /CNW/ - For the past 30 years, MONTONI has been designing, building and managing real estate projects with a clear vision: building on a promise of a sustainable future. Today, MONTONI reaffirmed that commitment by publishing its first-ever environmental, social and governance (ESG) report, a transformative step that reflects its desire to build a future that is sustainable, responsible and puts people first. Mindful of its responsibility and the impact of every decision that it makes, the company is committed to being a force for positive change in a fast-changing sector. Turning words into action In 2022, MONTONI announced an ambitious objective: to achieve carbon neutrality by 2040. In 2024, it took tangible steps toward that goal, investing $30 million in the decarbonization of its existing portfolio and launching PURE by MONTONI, an innovative fund designed to offset the environmental footprint of its operations. A pioneer of sustainable construction, MONTONI completed the first industrial building to be certified LEED ® Gold in Canada. Since 2010, it has delivered nearly 50 LEED-certified projects totalling over 5 million square feet. In 2023, it achieved a major milestone with the completion of its first building meeting the requirements of Zero-Carbon Building™ – Design (ZCB-Design), the most stringent carbon-neutrality standard in the industry. "We founded the company with a pledge to do things differently—with discipline, with heart and with a vision for the long term. Being awarded our first ZCB-Design certification is the outcome of a constant commitment to innovation and represents a huge step along the way to achieving carbon-neutral operations by 2040." – Dario Montoni, President Putting people first with every project Sustainability at MONTONI starts with its people. The company fosters an inclusive, stimulating work environment where everyone can develop to their full potential. Maison MONTONI, inaugurated in 2024, is the embodiment of that vision: a warm and welcoming headquarters designed for the well-being of the company's talents. MONTONI's active investments in skills development and workplace quality of life are reflected in continuous training programs and a global approach to diversity equity and inclusion (DEI), as well as the creation of a wellness committee and the position of manager, Employment experience—all initiatives that enable its people to thrive. The company has also made social engagement central to its mission, and is committed to giving back to the communities where it operates. Thanks to the engagement of managers and employees, MONTONI Group as well as the MONTONI Foundation support charitable organizations through donations, sponsorships and fundraising campaigns. In 2023 and 2024, more than 80 local organizations benefited from the company's support, with donations totalling more than $1.4 million, which testifies to its strong commitment to serving those communities. Practising good governance MONTONI is supported by robust, transparent governance that reflects its corporate values. With an experience, diverse executive team, the company has structured its management around specialized committees that ensure the smooth running of its operations and achievement of ambitious objectives. Pursuant to that desire to strengthen its organizational structure, MONTONI has, among other things, instituted a management committee and an ESG committee. The latter plays a crucial role as a catalyst for the integration of ESG principles into all aspects of the company's strategic thinking. Recognized for the past 24 years as one of Canada's Best-Managed Companies, MONTONI continues to build leadership that is responsible and mindful of the future. "Our ambition is clear: to make ESG a natural reflex, integral to our corporate culture and to how we build for the future. This report illustrates how that ambition is being translated into concrete actions that are quantifiable and aligned with sustainability best practices. In fully embracing this transition, we are demonstrating beyond any doubt that economic success goes hand in hand with social and climate responsibility.
