The Port of Bécancour, located on the south shore of the St. Lawrence River, focuses mainly on meeting the needs of industries set up in the Bécancour Waterfront Industrial Park, but also handles various types of cargo for other markets.

Accessible year-round, it is used for dry bulk commodities such as alumina, coal, magnesite concentrate and sugar, and for general cargo such as huge wind turbine components, telephone poles, steel, etc.

The port is equipped, on a permanent basis, with mobile cranes and the various berth spaces have either a roll-on/roll-off (ro-ro) loading and unloading ramp or a pneumatic unloading system.

It is serviced daily by the Canadian National (CN) and has access to major road systems in Quebec, Canada and the northeast United States.
