About Us
History
Weingartz was established in 1945 as a feed and farm-supply store in Utica, Michigan, serving the needs of local farmers and gardeners. From the beginning, Weingartz has been building a reputation of fair business practices and world-class customer service. Now the farm supplies are gone and highly productive equipment reigns. Meanwhile, our continuing commitment to the customer has helped us become the largest independent outdoor power-equipment dealer in North America.
Weingartz currently operates four stores in Michigan (Utica, Farmington Hills, Cedar Springs and Waterford) that carry a great selection of outdoor power and professional-turf equipment. Each location offers world-class after-sale support in parts and service right on site.
Objectives
Every company is ultimately in business to make a profit, but there are other objectives at Weingartz that are equally important to the bottom line. Those objectives are:
- Providing a healthy and profitable work environment for our employees.
- Creating a healthy, long-term, sustainable business enterprise that is respected by employees, customers and the community.
- Providing financial assistance to those who would otherwise go without, either materially or spiritually.
The management of Weingartz strives to always keep these objectives in mind in their daily decisions.
Mission Statement
Weingartz is a family-based organization built upon fair business practices. We strive to provide customer satisfaction beyond expectations through the development of employees and the utilization of technology and resources. We will set new standards in customer service with the innovative, customer-based thinking of our employees. Weingartz will hire only the friendliest, most knowledgeable and most capable people possible to service our customers. Decisions are to be based from the customer’s perspective using fair and ethical business practices. All employees are encouraged and expected to make decisions that will improve the partnership that Weingartz has created with our customers.
Through the acting out of our mission, Weingartz will:
- Maintain our position as the industry leader in customer service while continually raising our own standards.
- Offer a work environment that is conducive to employee growth, both personally and professionally.
- Contribute to the development and improvement of our communities and industry.
Weingartz realizes that adhering to these basic foundations will result in the growth of our company as a whole.
