We are a trusted name in the industry. Since 1966, we’ve been serving farmers, ranchers, cottagers and home owners in Manitoba.

OUR COMPANY’S HISTORY

It all started in a small farmhouse in the tiny village of Zbaraz, located 17 miles northwest of Arborg, MB. This was where Mike Shachtay Sr. began the legacy of Shachtay Sales & Service. Mike Sr. left the family farm to travel to Guelph, SK to get factory training to become a Smith-Roles farmer agent. Upon his return as a Smith-Roles dealer, he began selling welders and air compressors to the neighbours and local farmers. As Mike Sr. began to sell more and more, his product offerings also grew. Today, after more than 52 years in business, Shachtay Sales & Service moved its headquarters to Arborg. It is now a second-generation, 100% family-owned business. Mike Sr. passed away in 1983. To honour his memory and to fulfil the family’s commitment to the farming community, Rita and Mike Shachtay Jr. continue to operate our company. From a small business, our company is now a major player in the agriculture, lawn and garden, and recreational markets. We provide services not only to the Interlake and surrounding areas but also to our customers located as far as Europe and Central America.
