GIP expands Prairie footprint with acquisitions

Key Takeaways:

  • Green Infrastructure Partners (GIP) has acquired two separate companies—Potzus Paving & Road Maintenance Ltd. and Truck Saver Service (Yorkton) Ltd.—which will operate under the unified banner of GIP Potzus Paving Ltd.
  • Potzus Paving brings over six decades of heavy civil engineering, aggregate crushing, earthmoving, and asphalt paving experience in Saskatchewan.
  • Truck Saver Service adds specialized fleet maintenance and mechanical service capabilities to ensure equipment uptime across regional project sites.

The Whole Story:

Green Infrastructure Partners Inc. (GIP) has formally expanded its civil construction and service footprint across Western Canada through the dual acquisition of two Yorkton-based businesses: civil contractor Potzus Paving & Road Maintenance Ltd. and heavy equipment maintenance provider Truck Saver Service (Yorkton) Ltd.

Officially joining GIP’s operational network in July 2026 as GIP Potzus Paving Ltd., the integration brings together Potzus’s 60-year history in heavy civil infrastructure with Truck Saver Service’s dedicated mechanical and fleet maintenance expertise.

In an official statement welcoming both teams, GIP emphasized that the acquisitions reflect a shared commitment to craftsmanship, safety, and regional collaboration. The company noted that adding these established Saskatchewan businesses strengthens its ability to build connected communities and deliver vertically integrated infrastructure solutions across Western Canada.

The integration of Potzus Paving & Road Maintenance Ltd. and Truck Saver Service (Yorkton) Ltd. marks a strategic step in scaling GIP’s Prairie operations:

  • Potzus Paving & Road Maintenance Ltd.: A second-generation, family-owned civil construction leader established in 1966. The company brings a specialized workforce of over 150 professionals, three aggregate crushing plants, and three asphalt plants to support major highway, earthmoving, and paving contracts across Saskatchewan and Manitoba.
  • Truck Saver Service (Yorkton) Ltd.: An independent commercial vehicle and heavy equipment service specialist based in Yorkton. Its mechanical maintenance and repair capabilities bolster fleet reliability and reduce operational downtime for heavy civil projects.

Headquartered in Yorkton, Saskatchewan, Potzus Paving has built a 60-year legacy delivering heavy civil infrastructure, highway maintenance, earthmoving, and paving services for municipal, provincial, and commercial clients throughout Saskatchewan and Manitoba. By integrating Potzus alongside its heavy maintenance division, Truck Saver Service, GIP strengthens its vertically integrated supply chain, self-perform capacity, and regional equipment fleet across the Prairie provinces.

In a statement announcing the merger, GIP highlighted that the transaction underscores a shared commitment to quality craftsmanship, safety, and regional collaboration. The company emphasized that bringing the Yorkton team into the GIP family enhances its overall capacity to build connected communities, support long-term economic development, and deliver comprehensive infrastructure solutions across Western Canada.

The establishment of GIP Potzus Paving Ltd. marks another strategic step in expanding GIP’s civil infrastructure footprint throughout Western Canada. Headquartered in Yorkton with secondary operations in Saskatoon, the Potzus team brings a specialized workforce of over 150 skilled professionals, three aggregate crushing plants, and three asphalt plants into GIP’s network.

Combining Potzus’s local asphalt production, paving, and earthworks expertise with Truck Saver Service’s dedicated mechanical fleet maintenance capabilities allows GIP to streamline project delivery across Saskatchewan. The integrated platform will support major highway upgrades, municipal paving contracts, site development, and heavy industrial civil projects across the region while leveraging GIP’s broader national resources.
