The company, with about 25 workers, supplies entire truss systems to a variety of markets from individual buyers to a network of dealers throughout Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Alberta and North Dakota. The products find their way into a variety of residential, farm and commercial buildings. Prairie Truss supplies people with floor and truss systems, says Matt Guenther, designer and advertising manager. A floor system includes the floor truss, the beam package, the
hangers and any other parts that might be needed for wood web or I-joist systems. There are similar packages for roof truss systems. “Customer service is number one,” says CEO Jake Maendel, who doesn’t equivocate when asked for a quick overview of his company’s success. “The second is quality product and the third competitive pricing.”
