1 017 Canada s Convenience and Fuel Retail Channel Annual Facts & Figures Report

2 Our Partners The Canadian Convenience Stores Association (CCSA) would like to thank its National Associate Members for their generous support of the 017 Facts & Figures Report. Canada s Convenience and Fuel Retail Channel Annual Facts & Figures Report 017

3 Welcome Message This year, Canadians are celebrating the 150th anniversary of our nation! Just as Canada has changed by leaps and bounds since 1867, so has the footprint of the convenience and fuel retail channel. But, one thing that has not changed is the tremendous contributions that our channel makes to growing strong, vibrant communities throughout the country. It is our hope that this report will help our channel to stay ahead of the curve and to continue to ensure that Canadians can find what they need, when they need it. In the end, that is what convenience is all about! So much so that we celebrated those contributions in 017 by holding the first national C-store Day on August 30th. Started in Atlantic Canada, C-Store Day had become such a major event in the East that we could not think of a better time to take it national than Canada s sesquicentennial. C-Store Day was an opportunity to help raise the profile of c-stores among our elected leaders and the general public; reinforcing the critical role that the 7,39 convenience stores in Canada play in growing the communities they serve; and generating positive media coverage for a channel that sells $56 billion annually in goods and services and employs over 34,000 people. And, we partnered with the Children s Wish Foundation to raise money for a child diagnosed with a life-threatening illness. All in all, it was an opportunity to showcase the heart of our channel! Like our nation, Canada s convenience and fuel retail channel continues to adapt and evolve as reflected in the following pages of the 017 Annual Facts & Figures Report. We developed this report to help channel players to make informed decisions about operating their businesses, while giving regulators and the general public a snapshot of the importance of this retail channel growing number of c-store sites and employment opportunities; fuel and food options as growing drivers for success; and, continuing to meet changing consumer preferences. Data in this report comes from leading research organizations, including Abacus Data, Statistics Canada, Nielsen Canada, the Interprovincial Lottery Corporation, The Kent Group and from government finance reports on tax revenue.
