Richardson announced on Monday, Aug. 28, that it will buy Webb's Crop Services Ltd. at Vermilion and Agro Guys Inc. at Forestburg. Both deals are expected to close Thursday, Aug. 31.

Agro Guys began operations in 2004 and expanded to its current site at Highways 53 and 36 in 2009. From there, it set up its dry fertilizer blending facility, a larger chemical shed and added more anhydrous delivery units.

Webb's Crop Services has been part of the industry since 1943, when it began as an Elephant fertilizer dealer. The company is one of the Webb's family of businesses in the Vermilion area, which also includes the New Holland equipment dealer, Webb's Machinery, and auto dealer Webb's Ford.

The two operations will provide customers with inputs and services, but producers in the area will also have access to grain handling and merchandising through Richardson Pioneer's ag business centres at Lamont, Lavoy, Legacy Junction and Marshall, Sask.
