Here for Canadians at every hour,
in every community, across
every walk of life.
Not a transaction point, but a place where neighbourhoods connect and essentials stay within reach.
The first job for students and newcomers, and family businesses that keep jobs and dollars local, in every riding.
Open early, late, and around the clock, accessible when Canadians need them most.
Canada is focused on protecting jobs, backing small businesses, and easing the cost of living. Convenience stores deliver on all three every day: 182,000+ frontline jobs, thousands of family-run businesses, and everyday essentials made accessible in more than 5,000 communities. When Canada invests in this sector, it invests in the people who keep communities running.
Not just a place to grab what you need — a familiar face, a helping hand, a local job, a neighbourhood held together. We've always been here.
See How Canada Celebrates
There are more than 21,256 convenience stores in Canada, employing 182,808 frontline workers across 5,000+ communities.
Convenience frontline workers are students landing their first job, newcomers building a life in Canada, and family owners behind the counter at every hour, in every community.
We are the Convenience Industry Council of Canada (CICC) — the national voice of Canada's convenience stores, and the people behind them.
