This is how it should be done.

A business came into our store today and told us something we’ll never forget: it’s their company policy to support local first, before turning to Amazon or a big corporation.

Company policy. Not a nice idea, not a “when it’s convenient.” A rule they live by.

That’s the mindset we believe in, and it’s what we think most businesses should do. Imagine if every business in Ponoka and Central Alberta made the same commitment. Ask a local business first. Give them the chance to earn the order. If they can’t help, then look further.

It doesn’t have to cost more or be less convenient. It just starts with asking. And when local businesses buy from each other, those dollars stay here, supporting the teams, the fundraisers, and the families who make this community home.

To the business who stopped in today, thank you. You’re setting the example, and we hope others follow. 👏

What’s your business’s policy? If you don’t have one yet, now’s a great time to start.

Keep it local. Keep it Canadian. 🍁

Happy Small Business Week, Ponoka!

A big thank you to the Town of Ponoka for recognizing the businesses in our community this week. It means a lot to see support for local start at the top.

And to every fellow business owner in Ponoka and Central Alberta, thank you. Thank you for opening your doors every day, for sponsoring the teams, for supporting the fundraisers, and for being the reason this town is a great place to live, work, and do business.

Small Business Week runs October 19 to 25, but supporting local shouldn't stop on the 25th. When the Town, the businesses, and the community all choose to shop local, everyone grows together.

So this week, we'd love to challenge you:
🛍️ Shop at a local business you haven't tried yet
☕ Grab a coffee, a meal, or a gift from someone in town
🤝 If you're a business owner, buy from another local business

Every dollar spent here helps keep Ponoka strong.

Thank you to all our fellow businesses. We're proud to be in this with you. 🧡

🚧 Heads up, Ponoka!

Chipman Avenue will be closed on Tuesday while the Town does some maintenance, which means there will be no parking out front.

But we are still open! 🙌

There is plenty of parking in the back, so come on in through the back and we'll take care of you. We're open Tuesday from 9am until 8pm.

Thanks for your patience, and for continuing to shop local while the street is under construction. We appreciate you. 🍁

🤝 Team meeting today!

This morning our whole team sat down to talk about one thing: how can we make our customer service the best it can possibly be?

We looked at how we do things behind the scenes, how we can get your orders and quotes to you faster, and how we can spend more time on the sales floor helping you. We’re a family-owned business, and we want every visit, call and email to feel easy.

Thank you to our team for their ideas and hard work, and to all of you for supporting local. You’re the reason we do this. 🍎💙❤️

Have an idea or something we could do better? Tell us in the comments or stop by. We’d love to hear it!

🚚 Look at this load!

Our delivery van is packed to the roof today, and every single order in it is headed to a business outside of Ponoka.

We love that. Businesses in other towns have trusted a Ponoka company with their supplies, and we're proud to deliver for them.

It also got us thinking. If businesses in other communities are choosing to buy from a local company, imagine what could happen if more businesses right here at home did the same. Every order that stays in town helps keep a local team, a local fundraiser, or a local family going.

Local supporting local works. We're proof of it, one delivery at a time. 🍁

Need supplies for your business? Whether you're in Ponoka or the next town over, we'll get it to you. Free local delivery on orders over $50.

🍁 We hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving!

This weekend we spent time giving thanks for the growth we've seen in this community. It's been a big year, and we don't take it for granted.

It also got us thinking about something worth sharing.

We're a Ponoka business, proud of it. But right now, we do more business with businesses outside our community than we do right here at home. We're grateful for every one of those customers. They've helped us grow, and we'll keep serving them well.

It also tells us something. If a local business can earn the trust of customers in other towns, imagine what could happen if businesses here at home chose each other first.

That's why we keep talking about local supporting local. It's not a slogan to us. It's something we want to see happen right here, with the businesses that share this community with us.

When Ponoka businesses buy from Ponoka businesses, those dollars stay in town, and they come back around to the teams, the fundraisers, and the families who make this place home.

We're thankful for where we are. We just believe we can build something even stronger together.
