Brandt, a leading agriculture retailer and manufacturer of specialty ag products, has acquired a majority interest in Baicor, L.C.
Baicor, based in Logan, Utah, manufactures and distributes specialty fertilizers, focusing on liquids for foliar and soil applications.
This acquisition will give Brandt additional manufacturing capacity, plus access to a pipeline of new products based on leading research at the forefront of plant nutrition.
Founded in 1989, Baicor manufactures products for agriculture, greenhouse, turf and lawn & garden growers. The company distributes more than 40 proprietary specialty agriculture inputs under the Baicor brand, in addition to extensive private label manufacturing.
Baicor will operate as a Brandt subsidiary, part of the company’s Specialty Formulations division under the direction of EVP Bill Engel. Baicor employees will be retained and Baicor management will continue to operate the company day-to-day.
