Ivan Karsten will continue to work with the Plewis Automotive Group at the business in his role as General Manager. Badlands Harley-davidson will remain at its current location.
“This is a very exciting announcement for us for multiple reasons,” explained Ryan Plewis, Partner with the Plewis Automotive Group Inc. “As a Harley-davidson
enthusiast, I got to know Wendy and Ivan as a customer of the dealership first. Being a family-owned and operated venture, it was clear to me that they shared many of the same values that we live by in our other businesses. When the opportunity arose for us to purchase the store from the Karsten family, we knew it would be a great fit and are extremely happy that Ivan has agreed to push off retirement temporarily to help us get the store rolling.”
“Badlands Harley-davidson
is a great addition to our dealership family as it allows us to continue expanding both the variety of products and services we offer as well as expanding our presence into some new markets like Lethbridge and Brooks,” added Mark Plewis, Partner with the Plewis Automotive Group Inc. “With Badlands, our market area will expand from east of Swift Current, all the way to the British Columbia border. We are really looking forward to getting to know the people in those new areas.”
