YEG FBO Services

What YEG FBO Services does

YEG FBO Services Inc. is a privately held Fixed Base Operator (FBO) headquartered at Edmonton International Airport (YEG) in Alberta, Canada, in continuous operation since 1979. The company is the on-airport distributor of Shell Aviation Products, pumping roughly 24 million litres of Jet A and Avgas annually through a fleet of 55,000-litre fuel trucks maintained to Shell Canada's clean/dry/uncontaminated standard. Beyond fuel, YEG operates two Aerocentre facilities (combined 70,000 sq ft of hangar and commercial space) and offers aircraft ground services (air start units, GPUs, de-icing, baggage and cargo handling), aircraft maintenance under its Transport Canada AMO and FAA Certified Repair Station credentials, hangarage, and a suite of passenger and pilot services including lounges, customs and USA pre-clearance, flight planning, and quiet rooms. All staff are trained to Shell's ACE standard, and the company markets 24/7 availability to operators transiting Edmonton International.

The business is organized around four revenue pillars: (1) volume-based Shell Aviation fuel sales, (2) aircraft services and hangarage (approximately 2,800 jets hangared per year), (3) passenger and pilot amenities, and (4) recurring revenue from leasing and rental of nine distinct commercial spaces ranging from 110.5 to 20,158 sq ft (offices, hangars, shops, executive meeting rooms) and from an Elite services tier. Go-to-market is direct, on-airport, supported by phone, email, and a "Let us know you are coming" advance-notification form; customer segments span aircraft owners, corporate aviation departments, charter operators, and individual transiting passengers.

The company is privately held with no disclosed parent, subsidiaries, or external funding rounds. Leadership is led by General Manager Sarah Gratton, with Alex Hummer heading Sales & Marketing and Jon Ruff managing Ramp operations. Strategic third-party partners include Shell Aviation/Shell Canada on the supply side and Davis Aircraft Services and Newton Aviation Services Ltd. on the maintenance side. Management highlights 340 years of combined staff experience as a quality and continuity marker.
