Intersteel Industries (1999) Ltd.

Intersteel Industries (1999) Ltd. was started by John Warkentine in 1962 under the business name Stanley Manufacturing. It was first located on Stephen Street in down town Morden, Manitoba, Canada. Stanley Manufacturing's main focus was on repair-work for farm machinery. However, quickly it expanded its vision into manufacturing a variety of machines and machine accessories such as: electric lawnmowers, snow blowers, scrapers, rotary mowers, bale stacker's, utility trailers, harrow drawbars and stone pickers. But, the biggest selling product was the sunflower harvest attachments, which were shipped as far as Chile and Sudan. Although the majority were exported to the USA. In the late 1970`s the name was changed to Intersteel Industries and shortly after relocated to its present address, just west of Morden on Hwy 3. In the mid 1990`s there was a shift in merchandise production as waste management became the foremost field. At this time, Intersteel began making garbage bins of all shapes and sizes. John Warkentine's passion was aircraft, but his livelihood was designing. Many of the machines, which are used in the workplace, he handcrafted himself. His interest and activity within the business remained until his death in 2007. Being a family owned and operated business, his son Rick Warkentine began managing the business in the 1990`s and has since taken over since John Warkentine's passing.
