The Weyburn food store for Prairie Sky Co-op will undergo major renovations over the next year, as the Co-op has hired a general contractor and work is to begin in August, to be completed by summer of 2025.

WEYBURN - The Prairie Sky Co-operative Association announced the hiring of a contractor on Friday to do the extensive renovations to the food store in Weyburn this year.

The association has hired CCR Construction as the general contractor, with the project scheduled to start in August and be completed by the summer of 2025.

CCR has done several projects for other Co-ops, and understands the work must be done in a way to minimize disruption as much as possible for customers and employees.

CCR is a Regina-based company, but will be using local subcontractors, such as Don’s Plumbing and CD Electric, who are already familiar with the Weyburn food store and equipment.

Some of the key elements of the work to be done include replacement of all refrigeration equipment, display fixtures and fresh department production equipment, relocation of the pharmacy, installing new flooring and much more.

“We will have a state-of-the-art facility to serve our customers long into the future,” said Kevin Arthur, general manager of Prairie Sky Co-op.

“We know there will be many frustrations and inconveniences over the next year, but it will definitely be worth it when it is fully completed,” he added.
