“I went in looking for the same stock tank heaters I normally do. As soon as I walked in, Emma Lee greeted me and led me directly to the correct aisle. It's apparent her elevated knowledge with the varieties of tank heaters/features extends to every product in the store. It was a pleasure meeting Emma Lee and I was in and out of the farm store in under two minutes. Especially thankful, since my schedule today was full.”

“A huge thank you to Manpreet at Canco. I stopped by around 10 PM after the store had already closed and was in urgent need of a restroom. Even though he was finished for the day, he kindly let me use the restroom and waited an extra 10 minutes for me. His kindness, patience, and willingness to help went above and beyond. Great customer service and a genuinely good person. Thank you, Manpreet!”

“My go-to gas station in Drayton Valley. Why? Clean, well run and friendly. Even if I don't want coffee I'm almost always offered it and it's the small touches like that, that have me impressed and coming back. Also tends to be the lowest priced fuels in town along with Co-op... Also a bonus!”

“This place is amazing! The staff are very helpful and friendly and will have a genuine conversation you can tell when customer service is being fake or not, most of the time here it’s genuine! I want to shout the manager Janea she has helped my elderly mother several times directly coming out and helping fuel her car for her! Who does that in this world! I’ve seen other staff help load sandbags or carry propane! They have a very clean store smells good not like a gas station! It’s awesome to see local management here and employees! Definitely a great team”
