Fastenal has been working with the Oilers at Rogers Place since 2024. With the new agreement, they will supply the arena with a broad range of MRO products needed to maintain a world-class fan experience – from tools and fasteners to janitorial and sanitation supplies. Fastenal is also implementing additional Fastenal Managed Inventory Technology (FMIT), including cloud-connected FASTVend and FASTBin devices, to help the arena's maintenance and janitorial staff operate more efficiently.
As part of the agreement, Fastenal will have an enhanced presence during Oilers television broadcasts, as well as a dasherboard at Rogers Place during Oilers games.
"As the official MRO sponsor of the NHL, we're able to take a strategic approach with inventory demand, ensuring arena readiness and operational excellence," says Greg Mees, Fastenal's regional vice president overseeing Western Canada. "We're thrilled to bring this expertise to Rogers Place."
"They have an amazing facility, and we're excited to outfit it with state-of-the-art Fastenal solutions and services," added Dmitriy Lipes, Fastenal's local district manager. "Being located in Edmonton, we take a lot of pride in serving such a historic team. We're proud to partner on and off the ice."
Through Fastenal's national sponsorship of the NHL, the League, its Clubs, and arenas can all take advantage of FMIT, digital solutions, and our branch network to strengthen the supply chain and streamline their operations.
