The CEO for GROWMARK is Jim Spradlin. Jim took the stage at the annual meeting here in Chicago to report on how GROWMARK is maintaining a focus on its core values while adapting to changing market conditions, leadership and the importance of engaged employees, implementing a strategic plan and being mindful of environmental concerns. He told me that GROWMARK has started a multi-year process to update its information technology system which is the software that runs in the background of the organization.

Jim also comments on the recent announcement of a grain partnership with COFCO International Limited. He says the project was about a year in the making and is a mutually beneficial agreement that opens up new opportunities for midwest grain producers.
