Better Together

The last couple of nights have been historical for our two co-operatives. Our Co-op members demonstrated that they share in our vision of being better together. To ensure we are relevant and successful for this generation of Co-op members and for the future generations, in a Co- op Model.

I want to once again thank everyone who came out to vote, who supported this partnership through their actions, and the determined effort that was invested by so many of our team members. I also wish to thank those who believed in our Co-ops and who showed their dedication and pride to the brand and this project.

Below are the official results of the membership votes at both locations:

Evergreen Co-op will be coming to life on December 3rd, 2017. I am excited to see this Co-op evolve and adapt, diversify, and take advantage of opportunities in the future. Thanks to the forward-thinking members for building on our legacy and Co-op pride to continue being the backbone of the communities that we serve.

In the communities, we live, work and play, we are the true genuine leaders of the communities we service. We have built our reputation on being the local business that cares about our members, our community, and our employees. We connect central Alberta together by fueling, feeding, and building our communities. Side by side we are a local business that invests in people and in the many communities we serve.

Proud to be Better Together!
