Exciting News: A New Adventure Begins!

Chandra Barber • November 24, 2023

We are thrilled to share some incredible news with you today, we are the proud new owners of Browels ID Solutions!

 We are Dale & Chandra, a happily married couple whose story has taken an exciting turn as we embark on a new chapter in our lives.


With ambition, and a dash of entrepreneurial spirit we’ve taken the plunge and purchased a small business, and we can't wait to share our journey with you!

Meet Dale and Chandra


We have been together since we met during high school in small town Esterhazy, Saskatchewan. After spending twenty years living across western Canada, we decided to move our family to our home town. Chandra has always dreamed of running her own company, and it felt like fate when Browels ID Solutions was available for new ownership.


The Business


After an immersive training period with the previous owners, we have moved Browels ID Solutions to its new location Esterhazy, Saskatchewan. With a huge help from family, the move was a great success & we were fully operational without any customer disruption!


Chandra is managing all of our operations, with family working by her side. The daily talks with our great customers across Canada & the USA makes this very fulfilling.


Incorporated in 1972, Browels was located in the Winnipeg area for over 50 years!


We can't wait to see Browels ID Solutions flourish and to share our journey with all of you. Here's to love, ambition, and the beautiful chaos of entrepreneurship!
