Canadian Tire’s Essence +<\/a><\/strong> gasoline brand is sold at more than 40 service stations in Quebec, the vast majority being Canadian Tire<\/strong><\/a> gas stations near a store of the same name. Some, however, are isolated and others, just a few, are associated with another convenience store banner (indeed, we saw a Beau-soir<\/strong><\/a> store selling\u00a0Essence +<\/strong><\/a> near Joliette).<\/p>\n

According to Canadian Tire,\u00a0Essence +<\/a><\/strong> meets or exceeds all government standards and acts against fouling and corrosion (source: Canadian Tire<\/a>).<\/p>\n

Canadian Tire Petroleum<\/strong><\/a> is the largest independent retailer of gasoline in Canada. It operates more than 300 gas stations and sells more than 1.7 billion liters of gasoline a year. An average Canadian Tire<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0gas station sells 17,000 liters per day, twice as much gasoline as the industry average.<\/p>\n

Type of Franchising<\/h4>\n

An interested retailer must provide a letter of credit emitted by a bank that will be used as collateral for gasoline inventory. The amount can vary between $ 10,000 and $ 50,000. He must also purchase goods other than gasoline. The amount of purchases varies depending on the size of the gas station, but is usually between $ 30,000 to $ 70,000.<\/p>\n

Retailers’ remuneration consists of fixed income and variable income. The retailer receives a fixed administration fee on gasoline sales, as well as allowances to help cover the operating costs. He also receives a variable profit on the sale of non-gasoline merchandise, including everyday consumer goods, car wash packages and propane.<\/p>\n

Contracts are for a one-year term and a successful retailer can be offered the opportunity to manage multiple service stations (source: Canadian Tire<\/a>).<\/p>\n
