ABOUT BEAR PAW TRADING POST
The Trading Post was built in 1996 by the previous owner Marilyn Zelkie. She originally operated as a pawn broker and slowly moved away from the pawn business over the years to be the one-stop powwow shop. NGCI purchased the trading post on December 29th, 2017 and we would like to thank Marilyn for her commitment to this business and assistance in a smooth ownership transition! Hai Hai
The Bear Paw Trading Post boasts Alberta’s largest selection of beads with our FAMOUS rainbow wall of size 10 seed beads with over 300 colors to choose from! The Trading Post also offers size 10 & 12 – 3 cut beads, size 11 & 13 charlottes and size 11 delicas. You will also find crow, pony, spaghetti, bugle, and brass beads.
