The Nufarm NAFTA Headquarters

Brian Rund NufarmFarm media getting to tour the Nufarm and Nuseed headquarters in Alsip, IL got a nice break in the winter weather yesterday. It was a little windy but then what do you expect from Chicago? We were given an office area tour from Brian Rund, Director of Branding & Marketing Services. The facility Nufarm took over previously housed a glass/window manufacturing company and Brian says they took advantage of all the glass when remodeling. For example, the ceiling to floor windows throughout the office areas depict the various crop types that Nufarm focuses on. Another interesting change was in the kitchen/eating area. Since this was and still is a combination manufacturing and office facility the previous owners had separate side by side areas for office workers to eat and the factory workers. One of the first things Nufarm did was “tear down that wall.” The culture of Nufarm includes the fact that everyone is part of the same team/family. I like that.
