Publications Le Guide (PLG) is a privately held, independent magazine editing and publishing company founded in 1994 by the current President, Mr. Daniel Dubuc and Vice-President, Ms. Raffaella Marino.

Originally working from the spare room of a house, the company sustained considerable year on year growth to finally break through the one million dollar sales barrier in 1997. This growth has persisted throughout the years and Publications Le Guide now employs over 20 individuals and generates a turnover of many millions of dollars.

Building on its founder’s and employees’ specialized and extensive experience, Publications Le Guide revolutionized the market by publishing the first free widely distributed automotive classified advertising magazine. Today, PLG prints over 700,000 copies of this magazine per month, with a target of 1 million per month by 2008.

Thanks to its legendary devotion and great interest in its clients’ satisfaction, you can rest assured that Publications Le Guide always gives the best offer on the market. That is why Publications Le Guide is now editor of a large number of magazines and web sites.

Customer satisfaction is our company’s ultimate goal. This approach distinguishes Publications Le Guide from all its competitors.
