The Andersons Inc., Maumee, Ohio, announced on Sept. 18 that it has completed the sale of its Anselmo, Neb., grain facility to Country Partners Cooperative, a member-owned co-op that provides agronomy, energy, grain, and feed services to farmers and ranchers in central Nebraska. The Andersons will continue to own and operate their other grain and fertilizer locations in Nebraska.
“We built the Anselmo elevator from the ground up and opened for grain deliveries in the fall of 2012, growing a loyal customer base by concentrating on strong relationships and providing extraordinary service during the past decade,” said Bill Krueger, The Andersons COO and President of Trade and Processing. “We value the relationships that have been built and are pleased that these customers will continue to be served by Country Partners Cooperative.”
“The addition of the shuttle loader capability on the BNSF will help us meet our goal to deliver an unsurpassed customer experience and expand the markets that our customers can sell into,” said Country Partners Cooperative CEO Chris Wagner. “We are committed to continue providing local grain market expertise, along with merchandising flexibility to help deliver increased profitability for customers.”
