Shane & Doris Oram owners/operators of Oram General Merchants would like to tell you a little about themselves and how this all began. West Bridgeford Meats Ltd. was previously Oram General Merchants.

In September 1995, with financial support of the community we purchased the local grocery store. In February 1999, purchased the processing plant in Eyebrow, built a new facility on the back of the grocery and combined the two businesses.

After a fire in April 2000, we rebuilt the complete facility and reopened August 2000. With the growth of the processing. We are now expanding to the processing plant. If you would like to know more information about the expansion (click here) or contact us.
