Centre-du-Québec, Administrative region in southern Quebec, Canada.
Centre-du-Québec spreads across 6,930 square kilometers, encompassing five municipalities including Bécancour, Nicolet-Yamaska, L'Érable, Arthabaska, and Drummond.
The region emerged as an independent administrative territory on July 30, 1997, separating from the former Mauricie-Bois-Francs administrative division.
The territory connects several thousand members of the Wabanaki Nation, with primary communities established in Odanak and Wôlinak.
Three major highways, Autoroute 20, 30, and 55, provide efficient transportation links to Montreal and Quebec City, both accessible within 90 minutes.
Centre-du-Québec functions as Quebec's agricultural center, producing substantial quantities of maple syrup, dairy products, cereals, and fruits.
