A Conversation with Co-Founders Justin Juntunen and Joel Vikre
In our latest YouTube video, Justin and Joel walk through the biggest move in Cedar & Stone’s history, stepping into 140,000 square feet of manufacturing space in Superior, Wisconsin. After years of working in a shop that barely contained us, this new facility finally gives us the space to build, hire, and scale our business with intention.
One of the moments that defines the conversation is when Joel shares what this space means for our team:
“We hope this becomes an awesome place to build a career in the trades. A place to learn a variety of skills and grow into whatever you want to become.”
We’ve always believed that scaling doesn’t mean losing soul. Inside the video, they talk about:
- Why we took such a big risk to expand
- How this new space dramatically shortens lead times
- Our continued commitment to mass timber and building structures that last for generations
- A more intentional apprenticeship model and a kinder trades culture
- And a preview of what’s coming next
Justin brings it home:
“We want the highest quality, most beautiful, safest, and longest-lasting saunas people can find anywhere.”
