Canadian Tire Gas+

MAKE YOUR DREAM OF BEING AN INDEPENDENT BUSINESS OWNER A REALITY!

Billes in 1922, when the two brothers purchased the Hamilton Tire and Garage Ltd., located in Toronto’s Riverdale neighbourhood.

How to become a successful Gas+ Retailer

First and foremost, our most successful Gas+ retailers all share a passion for customer service and possess excellent interpersonal skills. Being fully committed to building a solid business is critical, as well as having a hands-on, lead-by-example, management style.

Previous experience running a business, including an understanding of accounting and administrative functions is an asset but other previous experiences are also valued. Gas+ retailers must also be proficient with Microsoft (Word/Excel/Outlook) and have the ability to meet Canadian Tire business standards and follow pricing guidelines. Our selection process is designed to identify these qualifications.

Total investment amount :

An initial investment of $30,000 to $70,000 (to be determined by the size of operation) is required up front for merchandise and inventory. You will also need a bank letter of credit between $10,000 and $50,000 to secure the gas inventory. And to complete the legal agreement between yourself and Canadian Tire, a separately incorporated company in your name must be established.

Across our group of companies, we live and work by our core values, including our value that inclusion is a must. We understand the importance of taking thoughtful action to create authentic, measured, meaningful and sustainable change. We know that when we collaborate and strive for connection, we are stronger together. From cultivating diverse talent and perspectives, listening to our customers, employees, and partners, and helping prioritize the needs of equity-deserving communities, we are united in our purpose of being here to make life in Canada better.
