BRANDT opening new specialty ag plant in 2024
BRANDT, a retailer of professional agronomic services and manufacturer of specialty ag input products, will break ground on a 100,000-square-foot production facility in Aurora, Nebraska, this summer.
The new Advanced Ag Formulations facility is expected to open in the third quarter of 2024.
Brandt offers a range of products for growers, retailers, consumers and dealers in applications including plant nutrition and turf health.
The company has more than 50 Organic Materials Review Institute-certified products.
Once completed, the facility will produce the full line of BRANDT’s specialty Ag products, including flagship technologies BRANDT Smart System, BRANDT Manni-Plex and BRANDT EnzUp.
“We are thrilled to break ground for this new plant in such a key strategic location,” Bill Engel, BRANDT executive vice president, said in a news release. “When this plant comes online, we’ll be able to better serve our existing and new customers in the upper Great Plains.”
The Advanced Ag Formulations plant will join BRANDT’s network of specialty formulations plants across the U.S.
The company operates plants in Pleasant Plains, Illinois; Avon Park, Florida; Logan, Utah; Fresno, California; and Visalia, California.
BRANDT, marking its 70th year in business, also has manufacturing facilities in Brazil and Spain.
