MONTREAL, Nov. 18, 2013 /CNW Telbec/ - GLV Inc. (GLV Group) announces the sale of its business unit GL&V Fabrication, located in Trois-Rivières, to a group of four members of the local management team.

I am very confident that the new owners will manage to seize new market opportunities that will enable the new company to grow", said Richard Verreault, President and Chief Executive Officer of GLV Inc.
