Retail Sales Associate/cashier

**About the Company**:“Reset Your Day at Paz”, sets out Paz Fuels strategy to continue to be an integral part of the Abbotsford community. Our mission is to provide extra value in every customer interaction to remain the cornerstone destination of the Abbotsford community.

Paz Fuels has changed and grown since they first opened in the Abbotsford area in 1969. Today, we are the leading integrated fuel and convenience operation in the area, and proudly continue to be part of the Abbotsford community. We strive to give our customers what they want, when they want it, which is underpinned by our core values of being genuine, an elevated level of integrity, respect for our customers and employees, and our continuous focus on safety.

Ever since the Paz family went into business in 1969, we have had an independent spirit and wanted to do things differently. Gas stations have been around for decades, but we have not seen a lot of change in how gas stations work. So, the Paz family took the opportunity to make getting gas a much better experience.

The retail operation has plenty of space for any vehicle, from small electric two-seaters to regular SUVs, and large commercial trucks. All our pumps are high-speed, and those reserved for truckers can dispense DEF directly. We offer a card lock service for our fleet management customers, and a sustainable car wash that takes just three minutes to make your car shine. We sell fresh food made to order in our restaurant and have a convenience store on the premises.

In recent years, the Paz team (now at over 40 people) has moved into the wholesale fuel supply business through the delivery of gas on demand, delivered by company owned gas trucks and personnel**.**
