Co -Op serves farmers
The Hensall District Co -
Operative with main office
in Hensall and branches in
Zurich, Brucefield and
Seaforth continues to serve
the needs of area farmers.
Present Hensall manager
Earl Wagner says the pur-
pose of the co-operative which
is farmer owned and operated
is to serve the needs of the
farmer.
The Co -Op employs about
60 persons at the four loca-
tions. At the Hensall office in
addition to manager Earl
Wagner are controller Brent
Caslick,pperations manager
Paul Ducharme, retail stores
manager Larry Shapton, Tim
Beard in charge of grain
marketing and stores
manager Greg Willert.
The Co -Operative has
grown considerably over the
past number of years. Sales in
1983 totalled over $25 million
with a net saving of $576,684.
Highest recent sales were
over $29 million in 1982 when
net savings were $588,222.
Headquarters of the
Seaforth branch which joined
the Hensall organization
recently are being moved to
the former Gay Lea property
on Main Street in Seaforth by
April 1 of this year.
Grain elevators are located
at the main branch in Hensall
along with the availability of
dry and fluid fertilizer, all
petroleum products in-
cluding propane, hardware
and farm products in the
retail store and grain
marketing services.
Custom grinding takes
place at the Brucefield
branch and in Zurich the
lumber division and feed pro-
duction is featured including
renovation of the pellet feed
mill.
In the year 1936, a group of
farmers in this area decided
to establish a fertilizer mixing
station in Hensall, beside the
railroad track. After
operating this mixing station
for two years, a Co-operative
Company was formed in 1939,
with a charter under the
name of South Huron
Farmers Co -Operative.
The first board of directors
were: President Albert Hen-
drick; Secretary, T.N. For-
syth and Directors: E.B.
Horner, James Wright, A.B.
Bell, William Bell, John C.
Bell and William Alexander.
The profit and loss statement
for that year shows total sales •
of $17,251.77 and a net saving
of $1,471.12.
In 1946, the company was
reorganized, and named the
Hensall District Co-operative.
The first board of this new
organization were: President
John Armstrong; Vice-
president, Sam Hendrick;
Directors: Harvey Taylor,
Edison Forrest, William
Alexander, E,B. Horner, and
Secretary, Bert'Klopp. That
year, the total sales were
$69,738.45 and net savings of
85,598.33.
1948 was another important
year with the purchase of the
Zurich Flour and Feed Mill
and the entry into
petroleum products,
In 1956, the Brucefield mill
was purchased, and a new
bulk fertilizer building was 1
erected in Hensall in 1969. The
present modern feed mill at
Zurich was officially opened
in February 1962, and the
E.L. Mickle and Son grain
elevator was purchased in
1968.
This move into grain handl-
ing was a major step for Hen-
sall Co-op, and created many
problems and many satisfac-
tions. The capacity at pur-
chase time was 160,000
bushels. It now holds approx-
imately 900,000 bushels.
During the last five years,
the board and management
has had one main objective,
to co-ordinate all Hensall
facilities to one location. This
has been accomplished with
the official opening of the
new store, offices and
warehouse.
John Paul Rau is president
of the Hensall Co -Operative
for the year 1984. William De -
Jong is vice-president and
John Campbell is secretary.
Other directors are Harold
Deichert, Ross McBeath,
Glenn -Thiel, Michael Connol-
ly, Peter Boersma, Andre
Durand and Barry Taylor.
