Becoming an AMSOIL Dealer

Dealers only need to sell if they want to earn commissions and bonuses. Even then, Dealers are encouraged to operate their businesses according to their own goals and schedules; AMSOIL does not place any pressure on its Dealers to make sales.

Why are certain Amsoil products unavailable in Canada?

The majority of products that are unavailable in Canada are aerosols, which are governed under different regulations in Canada than in the U.S. Those regulations would require alterations to our formulations that would result in unique formulas in Canada. Meanwhile, minimum production quantity requirements would result in inventory levels that exceed the products’ shelf life, further increasing costs and product waste to unacceptable levels. In the past, we have not been able to develop enough customer demand in Canada to support the increased costs associated with producing unique product lines specifically for the Canadian market. In addition, Canadian laws require specific product labels that differ from U.S. labels, driving up costs for labels and production even further. The handful of non-aerosol products that are unavailable in Canada are slower-moving products, and we are therefore unable to offer them in Canada.
