EB Horsman & Son Expansion in Alberta: New Grande Prairie Branch Opening 2026

March 2, 2026

EB Horsman & Son Expansion is excited to announce that EB Horsman & Son is expanding in Northern Alberta with a new branch coming to Grande Prairie. As one of the fastest‑growing cities in the province and a major hub for the oil and gas, forestry, and agriculture sectors, Grande Prairie is a natural fit for continued growth and long-term investment in Alberta. The soft opening is planned for August 1, 2026.

Built for the Community

For 126 years, EB Horsman & Son has supported customers across Western Canada—and for more than 65 years, they have proudly served businesses throughout the Peace River Country region. Opening a branch in Grande Prairie allows us to deepen that long-standing commitment by providing closer access to products, technical expertise, and the reliable service local customers have trusted for decades.

EBH’s Grande Prairie location is designed as an efficient branch model shaped by the best practices learned from opening previous branches. This format helps us grow responsibly and ensures they can support customers right away while continuing to expand their services over time.

Serving Grande Prairie with More Solutions

Supported by technical divisions and customer service teams, the Grande Prairie branch will offer a full range of electrical, lighting, and data communications products, plus process, automation, and control solutions. As an authorized Siemens distributor, EHB is also bringing power distribution, process instrumentation, and automation lines previously unavailable locally. Customers can access counter service, delivery, and fast next‑day inventory transfers across our network, along with value‑added support such as quotations, product recommendations, site inspections, audits, and project assistance.

A Strong Commitment to Alberta

“Our expansion into Grande Prairie reflects our long-term commitment to Alberta,” said Tyson Carvell, VP of Marketing. “We are bringing a combination of inventory, technical strength, and product lines that are not currently available in the region, backed by the resources of a 126‑year‑old Western Canadian independent company.”
