Agrellus Inc., the Lubbock-based e-commerce business and online marketplace for crop inputs, has reported the addition of several ag retail companies to its sales platform. These include Crescent Star Ag, Spearman, Texas; Horton Seed Services, Leoti, Kan.; and Wells Ag Supply, Fonda, Iowa.
Crescent Star Ag is a farm inputs retailer serving grower in the Texas Panhandle, Oklahoma, and Kansas. Horton Seed Services is a wheat seed sales, treating, and cleaning business, and Wells Ag Supply is a full-line farm inputs retailer offering fertilizer, ag chemicals, seed treatment, and biologicals to Iowa growers.
“2021 has already become an active year for certifying dealers on the Agrellus Platform,” said Agrellus CEO Chris Johnson. “We are truly excited that they understand that Agrellus is not another retail competitor and actually works directly for them.”
Agrellus offers seed, fertilizer, chemicals, irrigation parts, fuel additives, and custom application services from its online platform, which was launched in early 2017. Agrellus utilizes existing ag retailers and retail locations on its online and mobile platform, and charges no membership fee for participating retailers or grower members.
“Agrellus never competes with any retailer,” said Rusty Andrews, Agrellus Chairman. “We simply provide a mobile and web platform where a grower is confident they can get the best value from high quality retailers they already trust, and work with, in the current distribution channel.”
