HALIFAX: North Sun Energy, a co-owned business between North Atlantic and Suncor’s Petro-Canada™, is thrilled to announce the grand opening of seven new Orangestore locations at Petro-Canada sites in Halifax and surrounding areas.

The new convenience stores signal Orangestore’s expanded presence on the mainland, building on the brand’s Nova Scotia debut in Membertou, Cape Breton, last summer.

“The extension of Orangestore’s presence into the Halifax region is something we’re truly proud of,” said David Button, President of North Sun Energy.

“All seven stores are ideally situated at Petro-Canada sites in high-traffic areas … adjacent to thriving and growing communities that we are eager to become a part of.”

The seven stores include ones in Elmsdale; Fall River; and Stewiacke, among those in communities that The Laker News covers.

Others include: Kearney Lake Road Halifax; Dartmouth; Sackville Drive, Lower Sackville; and Herring Cove.
