We’ve all been there: trying to catch a business before it closes. That’s exactly the story for a couple of our drivers last month. When they found out they couldn’t pick up their truck by closing time, they called on our August STRIVEr to help them out. By setting the bar higher and valuing collaboration, over-the-road driver Marty Watts didn’t hesitate to help them out.
Each summer we are fortunate enough to get a handful of future agriculturists. This summer is no exception as we welcome five students who will have the opportunity to apply their classroom learning in real-life situations. From the fields and the shop to the office and the road, we’re excited for them to begin their adventure as our 2022 intern class.More

When Eldon started the company in 1934, one farmer supplied 9.8 people; today that number is 168. We have been blessed with advancements in technology, the development of more accurate and powerful machinery, and improvements to our facilities.

If you think that is being dramatic, think again. According to Brenda Neville, President & CEO of Iowa Motor Truck Association, 70% of communities just in Iowa are completely reliant on trucks for delivery of daily needed products.More
