Proud to serve over 120,000 member-owners.
Founded in 1909, UFA is one of Canada's largest and most dynamic co-operatives and has grown from a small-scale local co-operative into an extensive commercial and retail operation.
We are a progressive and diversified business that provides the products, services and solutions our owners and customers in rural communities need to successfully run their operations. Our members guide our decision-making and are rooted in the heart of all we do.
