Totem Building Supplies

What began as an independent, Calgary-based lumber store in 1970 has turned into a province-wide success story! Totem currently operates 18 retail locations, two contract sales divisions, a distribution centre and support office. Once a small, family business, Totem was acquired by Rona Inc. in 2004/2005, but continues to operate under the Totem Building Supplies banner. Totem prides itself on top-notch service provided by pleasant and knowledgeable staff. We focus on maintaining quality lumber in a traditional outdoor setting and offering a home improvement inventory of over 15,000 products. You'll never hear, "That's not my department," from a member of our team! University of Totem guarantees that each new sales hire is thoroughly trained in all aspects from paint to playcenters, tools to trusses. Our cashiers will greet you with a warm hello and our yard staff around back will load your lumber and large purchases for you while you drive thru (likely still enjoying some fresh, hot popcorn from your visit inside!). It's quality people that make our company outstanding. Caring, proud, honest, committed folk with fun-loving attitudes that will make you want to come to work! Totem's management team understands the importance of trust and respect, so our incentives and social programs will ensure your efforts are recognized and rewarded. With Totem stores blanketing the province and over 600 Rona locations nation-wide, you can be certain that this company is one to grow with!
