Carolina Eastern joins ag distributor coalition
US fertilizer distributor Carolina Eastern to join Aligned Ag Distributors (AAD) ownership group in a move that the company expects will bolster its competitiveness in the nutrient space.
Carolina Eastern will join a group of about 12 other distributors in the US that work together to be cost efficient in providing crop protection products, fertilizer, and other crop inputs to customers across the country. The company will officially become an additional AAD owner on 1 October.
Joining AAD will strengthen Carolina Eastern's role as an independent agriculture retailer and make the company more competitive in the crop protection market, Carolina Eastern executive vice president Butch Rodgers said.
The distributor company offers crop nutrients and other agriculture services at 30 retail locations, largely based in South Carolina.
AAD offers combined negotiation and purchasing power to increase the success of local distributors.
