Ag Retail Adds To Small Town Skylines
December 7, 2018
This October, I had an opportunity to learn the story behind the giant mural on the Agtegra elevator in Faulkton, SD.
What an awesome example of how a retailer adds a component to their community. As rancher Troy Hadrick said, the area was known for agriculture and hunting, but now it’s also known for art.
In their business with farmers ag retail offers seed, chemical, fertility and grain services that cause the business to go vertical with storage and handling facilities. Those facilities often dominate a small town’s horizon and often give it a distinct identity.
Many times when I’m visiting a retailer, they’ll saying something to the effect of “you can’t miss us,” or “just look for the elevator downtown.”
