Sparlings Propane

In 1951, Grant Sparling began selling propane at his hardware store in the village of Blyth, Ontario, but a propane business was about the last thing on his mind. Grant simply offered propane as a convenience for customers who bought a propane range at the store. No comprehensive business development strategy. No grand mission statement. And not a focus group in sight. Just a plain-spoken business philosophy that was all about “putting the customer first.” Thank goodness some things never change.

Today, Sparling’s is the second-largest propane company in Ontario. It’s the oldest propane company in Canada. And it’s still 100% owned by the Sparling family.
