About TS&M:

In 1973 TS&M Supply was purchased by three local Estevan businessmen, and in 1976 took on a fourth owner. It would be interesting to know if these four men’s dreams and expectations for their little company came anywhere close to the reality that TS&M Supply grew into. Their business philosophy was simple. Complete dedication to both product knowledge and customer service. This is still the cornerstone for TS&M Supply’s continuing success today.

Since 1973 TS&M has worked as a distributor for Centron Fiberglass products in Canada. Originally pipe was inventoried and sold through our location in Estevan, Sask. With the success that TS&M was having in Saskatchewan with the Centron products and selling more pipe into Alberta they decided to expand their operation and open a new location in Provost, AB 1999. They also expanded their business to Southern Alberta in 2001 which is now located in Redcliff, AB (since 2005).

In January 1997 TS&M Supply was sold to a larger chain of stores, and sold once again in 1998. It is now part of the National Oilwell Varco distribution chain of stores. Although it is now owned by a larger chain of stores, TS&M has maintained its local identity and is still managed by a local group of people. Its local head office remains in Estevan; where the whole business originated so many years ago.

Perhaps one of the biggest factors in setting TS&M Supply apart from the competition is its firm belief in supporting their community at a local level. They are very proud of the fact that they are now, and have always been, a very active Community Leader and supporter. Fortunately, NOV shares this belief and has allowed them to continue what they started so many years ago.

Although it began as a one store business, TS&M Supply has currently expanded into fourteen locations; seven of which are oilfield supply stores, and four of which are industrial supply stores and three fiberglass pipe locations. They now have branches in Saskatchewan, Manitoba, Alberta & Ontario, currently employing about 125 people. Through its evolution from a one store business in 1973, TS&M Supply remains a solid leader in the industry today. This can be accredited to its local management team and utilization of the vast resources of National Oilwell Varco.

TS&M Supply distributes a full line of oilfield & industrial products. It provides service, repair & technical assistance for Centron fiberglass, bottom-hole pumps, PC pumps, Multiplex pumps, and safety equipment. It also has a full service shop for pumps, valves, meters, gauges, etc.

At the end of the day, TS&M Supply’s success can all be traced back to the original business philosophy that is still followed today; 100% dedication to product knowledge and customer service!!

They provide superior performance in sweet and sour crude oil, refined petroleum products, fresh water, brines, H2S, CO2, acids, bases, natural gas and a variety of other corrosive conditions.
