Is Big Als a franchise lfs in the states??? or mail-order only??

They're all over around canada and kinda like a fish walmart, even tho the calgary one shut down. what a dive.
 
anyone? i havent been able to find any US store locations online, so are they a canadian company? or from florida?? whats the deal with big als?
 
I went to the website and their main office is in Niagara Falls, NY.
 
I heard that they're gonna open a new one in Calgary, at least I hope so. There's not really any other decent fish stores in Calgary.
 
hey mikey. gold and rfront are good for livestock. pisces has all the equipment. CAL owns us when it comes to lfs.
 
i phoned bigals yesterday, they said theat for sure they're going to open a new store in calgary, maybe two. i have like 5 years worth of vip points built up there and was kinda shocked that they went out of business. i love riverfront, i've never been to golds, and pisces is awesome too. i went to petsmart the other day and it reminded me why i don't shop there.

Cheers

thanks for the link. they have a really good setup, and im suprised there are not more actual stores in the larger US cities.
 
whats golds and rfront livestock like, any way to fined out what they carry maybe a web site. i ask a girl in big als (in edmonton)and she said they might be able to the order in fish they dont have.
 
I work at a big al's in oakville in ontario, the florida one is actually our farm. Tho im not sure if there is a store seperate or part of. The unfortunite thing is that Big Al's only has 3 corprate stores and all the rest are franchised. If you wanted to open a Big Als anyone could I suppose. They are actually based out of ontario in woodbridge.
