Pinnacle Agriculture Holdings LLC reported that it has successfully acquired Reck Aviation Inc. in Ft. Lupton, Colo. Reck Aviation is a family-owned, full-service chemical application company providing aerial crop applications of fertilizers, pesticides, and fungicides.
The business will operate as part of Pinnacle’s AgOne Application Services™ brand, and will be managed by former owner and pilot Matt Reck. All employees of Reck Aviation will retain their current positions under the new ownership, and the business will remain at is present location at 13986 Weld County Road 26 in Ft. Lupton.
“My decision to unify with Pinnacle as part of their AgOne brand was largely due to their similar commitment to the success of their customers and employees,” said Reck. “They are all about putting the customer first, and that is extremely important in this industry. We are excited about expanding our product and service offerings to bring added value to our growers.”
Pinnacle said the new AgOne location will continue to provide aerial application services, plus additional agronomy offerings including a complete selection of seed, custom fertilizer blends, crop protection products, and precision agriculture services through AgOne’s proprietary OptiGro® system.
“Pinnacle and AgOne are very pleased with the recent acquisition of Reck Aviation, and thrilled with the opportunity to service Colorado growers,” said Jason White, Pinnacle’s Performance Agriculture brand president. “We believe that area growers will be very happy with the complement of products and services that will be offered. Matt and his team have a great track record for service and stewardship, and we are confident that the farmers they have served so well will experience a smooth transition and continue to receive efficient, competitive and timely service.”
