in the early 20th century, petroleum retailing was a sideline trade of various businesses. With the wider adoption of the automobile. In the 19 twenties, major oil companies constructed drivin stations with service base. Over time, service stations began adding grocery items to meet customer needs. Eventually, service bays were replaced with fully stocked convenience stores, and other retail tenants were added to increase traffic. Irving's retail story unfolded in a similar way. In 1924 the first service station was opened in back to SH New Brunswick, and by 1934 the red, white and blue Irving logo was displayed on more than 30 stations, and Irving's valued products were being sold throughout the Maritimes. Over the next 20 years, the Irving network grew significantly in 1940 it expanded into Quebec, and in the 19 fifties, many stations were converted to the Irving brand, and new stations were constructed. The 19 sixties and seventies were a time of change. Service bays began disappearing. Restaurants were introduced along the new Trans Canada highway and stations with fully stocked convenience stores. We're populating street corners. In 1985 the first big stop was introduced in all its Cove, Nova Scotia. Soon, big stops were spreading along major highways. In 1986 Irving expanded South, acquiring a chain of stores in New England following an aggressive construction and acquisition program. U. S sales soon became a major contributor to overall revenue. The focus of the 19 nineties was on maintaining volume share in Atlantic Canada and growing volume share in New England 22,005. Irving focused intensely on rationalizing its network and consolidating volumes at strategic locations. Irving's history of selecting quality sites has resulted in some of the strongest retail assets of any petroleum network. These assets have fortified the brand and provided a foundation for ongoing growth through acquisition, construction of new sites and attraction of strong partnerships. In 2001 Irving entered into a joint venture partnership with Coastal in Quebec, which was expanded in 2000 and eight to include Irving owned retail sites across Atlantic, Canada and New England. This partnership provides opportunity to serve more customers and to grow in the Northeast. Irving's network of retail sites and travel plazas is built on a deep understanding of customers, markets and long term relationships to grow profitably within its core geography ease, Irving must increase volume per site by executing a strong marketing program and making prudent investments in destination retail locations. Today, Irving sells fuel at more than 900 retail sites in communities across eastern Canada and New England. Professional drivers can enjoy services at more than 100 fueling locations, including the famous Big Stop Travel Plazas Throat. It's history. Irving Oil has always drive to provide customers a clean, friendly and prompt experience at its sights. These efforts have contributed to distinguishing the Irving oil brand.
