Woodland Cabinetry sold to employees

by Mimi Larsen Courier Staff Writer

As of January 19, 2023, ownership of Woodland Cabinetry officially transferred to its employees through an Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP). Previous owners Harry Roers and Dean Stanton will continue as employees of the company, as will the entire management team, and day-to- day operations will continue exactly as before.

Roers and Stanton, who started the cabinetry business in 1994, have been considering transitioning away from ownership, and have had offers from outside entities to purchase the company. However, both men wanted to ensure that the business that employs more than 200 people remain in business and remain in Sisseton. The family-owned business has become an employee-owned business.
