Keystone Corner was the idea that came together when the Penner Group of Companies decided to take four successful businesses – Keystone Agri-Motive, SAR Sport & Recreation, Napa Auto Supply and Penner Trailers – and join them together in a 50,000 sq ft mall to offer a unique shopping experience for the outdoor, hard-working enthusiast.
“When you think of the shopping experience,” says Keith Friesen, vice president of Penner Group, “Keystone Corner offers everything from agricultural and commercial implements to lawn and garden equipment, auto parts, powersports, and trailer sales and rentals. We’ve got quite a mix here.”
“Here” happens to be the corner of Hwy 12 and Clearsprings Rd, just north of Steinbach.
Southeast farmers, industries and residential customers might already be aware of Keystone Agri-Motive, Penner Trailers, NAPA Auto Supply and S.A.R. Sport & Recreation at the high-traffic junction. Now, through the mini-mall concept of Keystone Corner, they can stop by and experience a more unified, streamlined shopping experience.
So what exactly does each business at the Keystone Corner offer?
Keystone Agri-Motive is a Kubota dealership that sells and services larger implements, tractors, skid steers, mini excavators and mowers, and has an extensive parts department. S.A.R. focuses on Polaris sleds, quads and side by sides, as well as Husqvarna motorcycles. NAPA sells auto parts and accessories. Finally, Penner Trailers sells, rents, and repairs any type of trailer a customer may need – whether a trailer to haul your toys or a trailer to help with your move.
People want convenience, and that’s what Keystone Corner aims to offer – helping the region’s one-stop shoppers find everything they need, all under one roof.
Friesen points out that a customer may need to visit Keystone Agri-Motive and pick up something like a belt or blade for their lawn mower. At the same time, they might pop into NAPA to buy some tools, or speak with someone at Penner Trailers about hauling their mower or another piece of equipment.
“The Penner Group of Companies is in the people business,” explains Friesen. “As a result, we want to take care of the customers who support us and find value in coming here, seeing our products and interacting with our staff.”
It’s all about providing a seamless shopping experience for Penner Group’s valued customers.
“One of the things we’ve noticed as we’ve promoted Keystone Corner is the loyalty of our customers in Steinbach and the surrounding area,” says Friesen. “They’ve really helped us grow and continue to support our efforts in providing a service and a product that’s needed around here. We’re very grateful to everyone who has helped in our success.”
