A staple in Grande Prairie’s small business sector celebrated 30 years in the Peace Country on March 3rd.
Beaverlodge Butcher Shop began operations on March 3rd, 1995 when Bob Geib set out to bring quality cuts of meat and sausage to the Peace Country. Officials say his hard work paved the way forward, keeping the business alive and well for three decades.
“We want to thank you, our loyal customers, and our amazing staff, past and present, for getting us to where we are today,” the butcher shop shared on social media.
30 years of business has brought about some changes for the shop. Since their start in a small shop in the 90s, owners Bob and Laurie Geib opened a location on Main Street in 2001, before expanding into Grande Prairie in 2018 and opening a production facility in 2023.
Now, in 2025, the shop shared its plans to open a third retail store, saying the Grande Banks location is “currently in the works,” and more information surrounding the opening will be announced in the coming months.
