ABOUT US
OUR STORY
At Irwin Fitness, our journey commenced with a welder driven by an unyielding passion for fitness and a compelling vision to invigorate Canadian manufacturing.
This dedication, combined with an extensive background in fabrication, paved the way to conceptualize and construct the inaugural Irwin Fitness at-home squat and bench rack. Utilizing scrap metal and a old school stick welder, the outcome was functional though unpretentious in appearance – a testament to its efficacy.
In the initial month, around 10 orders marked the inception of our venture. Every facet of the squat racks was meticulously shaped through the precision of an angle grinder. The flat bar was deftly cut to size, and the j-cups took form within a meticulously crafted jig, fashioned using a 10-ton shop press. The very uprights that grace our products today were painstakingly hand-drilled. This intricate, labor-intensive process was a labor of love, embraced wholeheartedly by our founder, Garth.
​
HOW IT'S GOING
As word-of-mouth acclaim began to ripple, Irwin Fitness embarked on a journey of growth. The escalating demand necessitated a reevaluation of our approach. We pondered how to enhance our products and ascend to the next level. From the outset, our driving force has been providing maximum value to our customers.
Our breakthrough came through the integration of laser-cutting technologies. Collaborating closely with a local enterprise, we harnessed the power of precisely cut flat and tube laser components. This transformative move distinguished us from other manufacturers, offering distinct features such as numbered uprights and custom height racks with unparalleled efficiency.
​
In the face of our rapidly expanding ambitions, our initial 600 sq ft at-home shop was swiftly outgrown. Within a mere six months, we found ourselves renting our first commercial space.
Fast forward to November 1st, 2021, when we acquired a modest 1300 sq ft shop in Carman, MB. With grand aspirations in tow, we're currently in the midst of realizing the construction of a 6500 sq ft showroom and manufacturing facility, poised to propel Irwin Fitness to greater heights.
​
We extend boundless gratitude to our steadfast community for their unwavering support from day one. Despite being a small family business, our aspirations are resolute and far-reaching.
Thank you for being a part of our story, and here's to embracing an even brighter future together.
