Biographical history
Established in Calgary in 1912 by James F. Burns, BURNCO has experienced a remarkable evolution over the past 100 years, transforming from a modest Calgary-based excavation and concrete business into Canada's largest independent supplier of ready-mix concrete, and a major supplier of asphalt and aggregate products, as well as an operator of a network of landscape centres across western Canada.
