Who we are?
Our stores are located in high traffic areas such as sky train stations, shopping malls and residential neighborhoods throughout the lower mainland of British Columbia. Store sizes range from 200 to 1500 square feet. The smaller kiosk size stores provide a specific customer oriented convenience option. Larger locations may also provide additional space for a customer to sit down and enjoy a cup of coffee and/or work at a designated Express News and Convenience office computer workstation. We try to develop locations that cater to the specific needs of a target market. We discourage the practice of developing identical store layouts in atmosphere and product offerings regardless of the demands of the potential customers. Stores are open seven days a week to serve the general public.
Express News and Convenience was established in 1998. Express News and Convenience carries a wide array of products including convenience items, magazines, newspapers, cigarettes, cigars, phone cards, cell phones and souvenir items. Express News and Smokes is a trademark of Kansas Enterprises Ltd.
