Pioneer Petroleum

Pioneer is a gas station franchise located in the province of Ontario, in Canada. The chain is an independent franchise, and has locations in many Ontario cities and towns.

The company was founded by Murray Hogarth on November 29, 1956 on Upper James Street in Hamilton, Ontario.

Like its larger and older competitor Canadian Tire, the company offers its own community currency, in the form of "Bonus Bucks", similar to Canadian Tire Money.
