Three Brothers Cement Their Future

In September of 1967 Ewald, Ed and Clarence Rempel, began the Fraser Valley’s first ready-mix concrete company in Abbotsford. They had a strong vision to successfully meet the needs of the Abbotsford building community. In their first year, the youthful enterprise surpassed its sales goal of 9,000 cubic metres. They achieved this goal with only a basic batch plant, two mixer trucks and a borrowed loader.

By meeting the needs of not only the builders but also placing contractors and framers, the company established a solid base of loyal customers in the growing Abbotsford area and began expanding.
