Transcontinental was inducted into the Québec Business Hall of Fame in 2009 and today, Transcontinental has a workforce of about 10,500 employees.

As a man who believes in giving back to society, Mr. Marcoux was co-head of the Centraide campaign in Greater Montreal in 2006. He is an Associate Governor of the Board of Governors of the University of Montreal, and the École des Hautes Études Commerciales (HEC) designated his arts management foundation the Carmelle and Rémi Marcoux Chair in Arts Management.
