Our history

GMS Aggregates has its roots in the 1970s when Herve Faucher discovered a gravel quarry that would become the foundation of our company. Recognizing the potential of this resource, Herve's vision took shape in 2007, driven by his deep understanding of the industrial and construction sectors. Partnering with industry professionals, he established GMS Aggregates with a commitment to excellence and innovation.

Starting from a single quarry, GMS Aggregates quickly expanded to several strategically located sites across Alberta. Each location was carefully selected to ensure proximity to key industrial, commercial, and agricultural developments, enabling us to provide top-quality materials exactly where they are needed.

Over the years, GMS Aggregates has evolved into a trusted leader in the industry, offering a diverse range of products tailored to the specific needs of our clients. Our growth is fueled by a commitment to embracing new technologies and practices, including advanced land improvement techniques that support the changing demands of agriculture and infrastructure.

Throughout our history, we have maintained a steadfast focus on quality, safety, and ethical business practices. Our dedication to reclaiming mined areas and restoring land to its original state reflects our commitment to sustainability and environmental responsibility.

From our humble beginnings to our current status as a key player in the aggregates market, GMS Aggregates has always prioritized the success of our customers. We are proud to be a reliable partner, helping to build the foundations of Alberta’s industrial and construction landscape.

“I had the pleasure of working with GMS for a pipeline project in the area. Any time I called on short notice they were always very accommodating to fill my order in a safe and efficient manner. Everything was excellent from the product, prices, equipment & staff. Thanks Jim & Randy, Look forward to working with you in the near future.”

“In 2021 Abalone completed a large project for Imperial Oil at their Kearl Lake site. GMS aggregates supplied all aggregates for use as structural fill, grading, and pipe bedding. The material was of excellent quality, compacted well, and exceeded the requirements of Imperial Oils specification. The project site was very congested, yet GMS was able to operate both safely and efficiently within the site. All drivers were safe, and complied with all site rules. Abalone will continue to use GMS aggregates when working in the Fort McMurray area”

“We have had a working relationship with GMS aggregates for approximately 8 years. In those 8 years we have utilized their aggregate and delivery ability on projects we have completed within the Fort McMurray region. Jim has been an invaluable resource for knowledge within the supply and delivery of various products that they produce and deliver. Our business relationship has developed to a mutually beneficial existence as we assist GMS in mechanical and welding support. These types of partnerships are paramount to continued success within Fort McMurray. We will be continuing to use GMS aggregates in our current and future construction projects.“
