Pauly Kleinsasser has a unique business philosophy: “it is all about love and respect.” This principle is far too rare to hear in the dog-eat-dog world of business, but it is from this concept that Pauly has seen Springfield Woodworking grow substantially over the years. A devout Christian Hutterite, Pauly sees Springfield’s success as a blessing from God. He recalls his company’s humble beginnings: “My uncle Reuben and I started this company back in 1999. We started off as a hobby shop making furniture, but have evolved into the third largest custom cabinet company in Manitoba. Hutterites don’t normally hire outside of the colony, but we have hired about 55 workers from our local towns.” Today, Springfield employs 90 people: an impressive feat for a community whose population totals only 115 souls. So how exactly did this small community give birth to such a bustling facility?
