Located in the heart of Alberta's beautiful parkland and midway between the two major cities of Calgary and Edmonton, Red Deer is Central Alberta's trading and distribution centre.
Red Deer's central location gives it the distinction of being the only city on the Canadian prairies with a potential market of over two million people within a 160 kilometre radius. If you supply or distribute products, the central location also makes it possible for same day delivery anywhere in Alberta and areas of British Columbia and Saskatchewan.
