Chantal Ruel, AHT

Chantal was born and raised in Quebec surrounded by her parents and three sisters. Although coming from an urban life, Chantal quickly fell in love with agriculture and everything that surrounds it. With a diploma in Animal Health Technology obtained in 2002, Chantal began her career in a veterinary clinic for companion animals and then quickly branched out into the pork industry at the Coopérative Fédérée de Québec’s Research Farm. In order to perfect her knowledge of swine industry, she then moved to a private company to work as farrowing manager in a 1,800-sow operation.
With care for animal health and eager to share her knowledge, Chantal then entered the pharmaceutical field by joining the Vetoquinol Canada team in 2005. During her seventeen years as a territory manager, she has developed extraordinary knowledge and understanding of the industry, making her a leader in her field.
It is with great pride that Chantal joined the Solvet team in September 2022 to pursue her career in a family business that cares about agriculture and its producers.
Based in Quebec with her two boys, Chantal divides her time between the pharmaceutical industry, her boys’ many sports, some motocross and snowboarding.
