About us
Our company
A family business since 1976 working on it's 3rd generation of ownership.
in 1976, Maurice Dean purchased the store after owning Maurice Shoes in Red Deer, AB. He ran the store for several years, and in 1980, asked his son Reg Dean for help running day to day business. Reg relocated his new family back to Caroline, and ran the store with his father until he purchased it from Maurice. He was still a big part of the business until Maurice was ill and passed away in 1986. in 2011, he asked his daughter Monique Dean for assistance in running day to day business, and in February of 2018, she purchased it from Reg.
