Le Mars Agri-Center opens new fertilizer plant

Employees of the Le Mars Agri-Center along with members of the Le Mars Area Chamber of Commerce cut a ribbon inside of the Agri-Center’s new fertilizer plant.

Le Mars Agri-Center opened their doors to their new fertilizer plant during a ribbon-cutting ceremony on Wednesday morning. General manager Brian Harpenau told KLEM that the new facility has five times the storage capacity of what the Agri-Center had previously.

 

The Le Mars Area Chamber of Commerce held a Community Coffee event at the new facility, allowing community members to tour the building, which Harpenau says has new features that will improve and speed up production.

 

Harpenau says the new facility was a “long overdue” upgrade, and shows that the Agri-Center is committed to growing their business in Le Mars.

 

The new plant is located at 224 2nd Ave in Le Mars.
