Changing the World in Concrete Ways
About us
Aster Brands is comprised of four companies specializing in precast concrete manufacturing. From expertly engineered large block retaining walls to customized outdoor living spaces to time-saving light foundations, we're changing the world in concrete ways. Our licensed brands include: 🧱Redi-Rock, a large-scale commercial retaining wall system. 🪨Rosetta Hardscapes, a smaller-scale suite of landscape products including pavers, retaining walls, steps, and fire pits. 💡 Pole Base, a precast light pole base system for commercial site lighting. The values we hold dear today can be traced back to the lessons our founders passed on from their early days in business. They’re not unique to our work as we endeavor to live them out in our personal lives every day. 🥾 Lead the Way: We "make it better" by leading and being led, and by pursuing sound new ideas. 🏆 Never Give Up: When work becomes difficult we trust it's because it's work worth doing - no matter the challenge, we don't give up. ❤️ Make Time to Care: We generously attend to the needs of our families, coworkers, customers, and communities. Life and work are a gift. Therefore, we don't define people by what they can achieve or produce. We reject the idea that being constantly busy is the best way to live. Instead, we generously attend to the needs of our families, coworkers, and customers. People often tell us they dream of retiring in Northern Michigan but they never thought they could have a thriving professional career here. It’s possible!

Introducing “The Nexus” from Aster Brands! This past year, the marketing team has been implementing the They Ask, You Answer strategy from Marcus Sheridan. Our brands now have Knowledge Hubs where the content we create, as part of this strategy, lives. Not everyone knows about the content we are creating yet, or how to use it though. The Nexus will (hopefully 🤞) be the solution to this. Our partners and team members will now receive emails with the most recent content created for their brand, event updates and a guide on how to use it themselves via this email. Kudos to… Olivia Schaub for being the talented composer she is Greg Manning for the stunning visuals and branding & to everyone who has had their hand in creating content this year ✒️📙 #marketing #asterbrands #theyaskyouanswer

This past Saturday The Manthei Group hosted a 5k for all of the families who are part of their local businesses. It was the most beautiful morning to get out, burn some energy, and enjoy the fall colors. Also, I’ll do (nearly) anything for a free t-shirt. Especially when it includes a Greg Manning logo design! I am so grateful I work for a company that truly cares about the health and wellness of their employees and families. Aster Brands #fallingforfitness5k

How lucky we are to have Hazel (our Chief Happiness Officer) light up our office ❤️. She makes my day every time she sprints through the door to say hello.

🙂: Me in a typical marketing team meeting 🤩: Me in a marketing team meeting sitting next to Hazel
Business Development & Events Coordinator for Rosetta Hardscapes & Redi-Rock International -Building Relationships For Long Term Success
✨ Win-Win Solutions: A Lesson from Our Chief Happiness Officer, Hazel ✨ One of my core values is finding win-win scenarios. It's a principle that resonates deeply with me, and it’s at the heart of Stephen Covey’s The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People. Recently, our office has been bustling with activity as we had a new roof installed. Naturally, Hazel, our beloved bulldog and Chief Happiness Officer, wasn’t thrilled with the noise. While we knew she might not enjoy all the commotion, we wanted to keep her spirits up and liven the office atmosphere at the same time. During a marketing meeting, Hazel’s barking got a little out of hand in the office, so she joined us in the meeting room and took a seat. Instantly, the energy shifted. Her presence brought smiles to everyone’s faces, and funnily enough, her barking stopped! It reminded me of the power of a win-win mindset: Hazel found comfort being with the team, and we got a boost in morale. It’s a simple example of how when we seek solutions where both sides benefit, everyone wins—whether in business or in life. #WinWin #Leadership #OfficeCulture #7Habits #Teamwork #ChiefHappinessOfficer #BulldogLife

Happy Aster-versary Gerry! We are grateful for all you do! ✈️ 1. What's your favorite part about working for Aster Brands or your job? "My favorite aspect of my role is meeting and working with so many great customers daily. From the producer sales representatives who continue to push our brand forward to the contractors who have shown me so many creative installations, no trip is the same. Meeting this wide range of people motivates me to be of the utmost service to them. Although the travel can get intense at times, I have been able to experience places throughout the world that I would have never imagined seeing." 🍻 2. What's a fun fact that people may not know about you? "I once spilled a whole tray of beer on a former Chicago Cubs manager. Running into him at a small piano bar in Chicago, he was friendly and willing to talk, which is rare nowadays. I talk with my hands and while explaining a recent game that I attended, I knocked down a tray of beer that the server behind me was carrying, spilling it mainly on the coach. He was fired weeks later." ⛳ 3. What is your favorite thing to do in your free time? "When I have free time, I enjoy spending time with my family and friends, especially if we can plan a small getaway together. Whether hiking in a mountainous area, touring historical sites, golfing, or eating like a local, I enjoy making lasting memories with my people." Here's to Gerry! Congratulations on another great year! 🧡 #thankyou #team #anniversary
