FMC has redefined itself as an agricultural sciences company positioned for growth in the North American retail market.
“It is very critical for any company to get to a place where they can define themselves as mainly belonging to one specific market,” said Pierre Brondeau, CEO. “And I think we’ve chosen a market like ag today, after 10 years. We are an agricultural sciences company, and until you get to this point, you don’t really have a company you are able to grow. And I think that’s the biggest lesson for us.”
Brondeau said the company offers a robust portfolio of products, as well as technology and scientific-based knowledge. He believes these are things that differentiate the company from others around the world. Brondeau presented at the Ag Retailers Association Annual Conference and Expo in New Orleans.
