The Canadian gas station industry has been navigating a turbulent economic landscape, shaped largely by fluctuations in oil prices, economic instability and geopolitical tensions. These factors have sent oil prices swinging dramatically, impacting revenue and profit. In 2025, revenue will dip to $31.7 billion after falling by 3.1%. However, profit stability is expected as crude oil prices stabilize, even as the industry faces challenges from shifts toward electric vehicles and economic pressures like rising credit card fees. Over the past five years, the industry has experienced both highs and lows, but overall, revenue grew at a CAGR of 2.2%. Oil prices plunged in 2020, causing revenue drops, but later rebounded in 2021 and 2022, with growth linked to oil price surges of 91.4% and 43.8%. This pushed revenue up by almost 10.0% in 2022. Larger chains have gained market share, leveraging economies of scale to weather price fluctuations better than smaller competitors. Regional disparities, especially in Western Canada, highlighted these challenges as some areas faced higher gasoline prices due to limited refinery capacity. The shift towards convenience store models has been key for many stations, providing a buffer against fuel sales volatility, but this reclassifies these retailers out of the industry. Looking ahead, the next five years present a mixed bag for Canada's gas stations. Revenue is projected to reach $33.4 billion by 2030 with a modest CAGR of 1.1%. As electric vehicle adoption rises, driven by federal targets for zero-emission vehicles, traditional fuel sales might slump. The industry's response is to diversify offerings, incorporating EV charging stations, convenience stores and enhanced retail options to attract a broader customer base. Technological advancements in fuel dispensing and payment systems will further transform operations. Despite economic uncertainties and global oil price influences, gas stations can position themselves for growth by innovating and adapting to changing consumer demands and environmental policies.
