Geneseo, IL (November 15, 2024) — Wyffels Hybrids announces a new sales region in southeast Minnesota, adding 22 counties and more than two million corn acres to the Wyffels footprint. The sales territory expansion follows more than a decade of consistent sales growth and enhanced distribution capabilities from the new Wyffels Hybrids facility based in Ames, Iowa.
“Our growth strategy prioritizes resources to serve our growing customer base at a level of performance and service people expect from Wyffels Hybrids,” says Bruce Howison, Vice President of Sales and Marketing. “Part of that strategic plan is focused growth. We focus on the central corn belt for our high-performing hybrids, backed by the best people in the seed industry.”
