E.B. Horsman expands into Grande Prairie as industrial and electrical demand grows
E.B. Horsman & Son is now operating its Grande Prairie branch at 9036 108 Street. The company says the branch carries approximately $10 million of inventory selected for Northern Alberta industrial demand and is backed by a 21-branch Western Canadian network with more than $55 million of shared inventory. That scale makes the local branch a more meaningful industrial-demand signal than a typical satellite sales office.
