Castle Growth Continues Out West

Castle has announced that a new member location was added in Western Canada. Located in Edmonton, Alberta, Everything Exterior is a locally owned, building materials retail store specializing in decking, siding, and stone. Established over a decade ago, the business is growing rapidly in the competitive local market following a recent change in ownership and management.

Owners, Gagan Prince, and Harp Thind had been approached by multiple buying groups in the past but were reluctant and concerned that joining a buying group might be costly and impact their independence. After receiving multiple referrals from other Castle members, and learning more about Castle, the partners determined that Castle was unique, and the right fit for their business.

“Castle’s not-for-profit business model and the fact that we will have the freedom to run our business our way made the most sense to us. With all the member benefits and support that Castle offers, we are now excited to be joining a buying group." Harp Thind, Partner

As a locally owned and operated company, Everything Exteriors has built a strong name and reputation in their market. Their investment to move to a new location will allow them to better serve their customers and their alignment with Castle will ensure they can turn around orders quickly and add to their existing product assortment. An official grand opening will be planned for Spring 2024.

“Successful independents know how to keep their business moving in the right direction. At Castle our mission is to empower these entrepreneurs by offering the lowest cost of affiliation combined with the lowest cost of goods of any buying group in Canada. We welcome Everything Exterior to Castle, to the family. ” Ken Jenkins, President
