Long-time UFA Petroleum Manager, Penny Mastel, is thrilled with the new location. “The old cardlock had been around since the early 90s, and it was definitely time for an upgrade,” said Mastel. “This site exceeds my expectations, and we’ve heard nothing but positive customer feedback since opening. I’m enjoying serving customers from a brand new, easily accessible location.”
The Dunmore Petroleum Agency is another example of how the co-operative reinvests in the communities where its employees and members live and work. UFA also has a robust Community Investment program and presented a $1,000 donation to HALO Air Ambulance during the event. Paul Carolan, HALO’s President & CEO will be on hand to accept the donation.
