Commitment to Excellence Award 2024

We are very pleased to announce that Ste Rose Co-op Home & Building Centre has received the prestigious Co-operative Retail System (CRS) Home Centre Commitment to Excellence Award for Retails from Federated Co-op in the East Zone (southern Saskatchewan and all of Manitoba)! This is the second year in a row that Dauphin Co-op has earned this award – a first for Co-ops across Western Canada. Never has a Co-op retail won two years in a row.

Each year, the CRS Home and Building Solutions Department recognizes excellence in Retailing. The Home Centre Commitment to Excellence Award is presented to those Home Centres that achieves excellence in the following areas:
• Financials
• Operations
• Customer Experience
• Community Involvement

Stephen Bunka, Dauphin Co-op Building Division Manager, credits a strong focus on Co-op brand identity across the division as the reason for their success. Building and maintaining trusted relationships with Members, customers, contractors and each other is a daily focus. Through accreditations and continual training, they are able to offer insights, advice and estimates on building or renovation projects – large or small. They take special care with product selection and do everything they can to ensure products and delivery expectations are met or exceeded.

The Ste. Rose Home & Building Centre is an anchor in the community it serves. The team makes our Vison to “Enrich the life of our communities” and Mission to "Make a difference by building valued relationships with our members, team members and communities one interaction at a time” come true everyday with their actions and interactions with the community and each other. If you every stop by the store you will see how they make every one feel at home there. They know their guests by name, they have fun together and they offer the communities all the amenities that are needed to build, feed and maintain their homes and farms.

Congratulations to (pictured), Jessie, Brenda, Percy, Nik, Celeste, Jennifer, Stephen, Jason, Denis, Lucien, (Sharon, Linda and Michel — not pictured).
