The crisp winter air in Baraga carried an unmistakable buzz of anticipation last week as local loggers, forestry professionals, and community members gathered to witness the Grand Opening of the new Ponsse Baraga Parts Hub. The hub opened on Friday, Jan. 30, 2026, at 12937 Highway M-38 in Baraga and went from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., offering cof
fee and doughnuts to attendees. The event unfolded as the doors to the new hub opened, welcoming customers to explore shelves stocked with parts and to meet the faces behind the operation. More than a warehouse, the facility demonstrates the company’s commit
ment to addressing customer needs. Visitors were greeted with, “We heard. We listened. We acted.” highlighting the company’s focus on the needs of its customers, its service and
convenience. To read more, subscribe to the L’Anse Sentinel online, or buy a print copy at our local retailers.
