What began as a small service station in Bouctouche, New Brunswick has evolved into one of today's leading regional energy companies, known most widely for its commitment to customer service and its reputation as an environmental first-mover. We started by focusing on people. Living in an apartment above our first service station, founder K.C. Irving was known to help customers who honked their horn for service - even in the middle of the night - allowing them to fuel up and make it home. 2, record 1, English, - Irving%20Oil%20Company%2C%20Limited

À l'origine une petite station-service à Bouctouche, au Nouveau-Brunswick, Irving Oil est devenue l'une des principales entreprises de produits énergétiques régionales, reconnue principalement pour son engagement envers le service à la clientèle et sa réputation de figure de proue en matière d'environnement. Dès le début, nous nous sommes concentrés sur les gens. Le fondateur, K.C. Irving, vivait dans un appartement à l'étage de la première station-service et était connu pour descendre servir les clients qui klaxonnaient à sa fenêtre, même au milieu de la nuit, leur permettant ainsi de faire le plein et de rentrer chez eux. 2, record 1, French, - Irving%20Oil%20Company%2C%20Limited
