Barbecues Galore: Fireplace & BBQ Experts in Oakville
Since 1979, Barbecues Galore has been Canada’s fireplace experts, but we don’t stop there—we’re also Canada’s barbecue experts! When it comes to gas, charcoal, electric, and luxury built-in barbecues, you can count on us for the best selection. Unlike big box stores that only stock them seasonally, we offer these products year-round. Our experts are always ready to help you find the perfect barbecue, fireplace, or any patio essentials like furniture, fire tables, heaters, and more.
Our five showrooms feature the finest fireplaces, barbecues, and patio furniture from around the globe. We take pride in offering only top-quality products—if it doesn’t meet our high standards, it won’t be in our stores. Visit us today to see for yourself! We have five locations: two in Calgary and three in Ontario (Burlington, Oakville, and Etobicoke). See you soon!”
Company History
Barbecues Galore began as a wholesale company called Tradex Supply in Calgary, Alberta, which still operates today. Tradex initially distributed barbecues to retailers across Canada, but soon ventured into retail themselves. In 1979, they opened their first retail store under the name Barbecues Galore. From our modest beginnings in Calgary's wild west, we have grown to operate five stores across Canada, including two in Calgary, and one each in Burlington, Oakville, and Etobicoke (Toronto), Ontario. We specialize in selling and installing top-quality fireplaces and barbecues from renowned brands like Valor, Amantii, Dimplex, Napoleon, Weber, Broil King, DCS, Hestan, and Lynx, among others.
Our fireplace division has been thriving for over 60 years. We took over Woods Fireplaces, a company established in 1938, and continue to provide the best service and expertise in the Canadian fireplace industry. While Barbecues Galore is our name, fireplaces make up a significant portion of our business. Each of our locations features numerous installed and operational fireplaces, allowing you to see and feel them in person rather than just browsing a catalogue. We boast the largest fireplace showrooms in Canada, and each one lives up to that claim.
