After having managed it for several years, Wilf Saarloos had the opportunity to purchase the grist and molasses mill and retail store in Aylmer, beginning Elgin Feeds Ltd.
As the business continued to grow, an opportunity arose to purchase Thorndale Farm Supplies, which included a retail store and pellet mill, giving our customers greater flexibility in product consistency.
Over the following years, we continued to invest in improving capabilities at both of our mills as well as expanding our fleet to include modern tanker and auger trucks. We also grew our trading areas to include the Belmont and Fingal areas.
We grew again, acquiring retail stores in Norwich and in Burford, bringing our total retail locations up to four.
Oxford Feed Supply in Ingersoll joined our group of companies.
All retail and mill businesses consolidated under a new name, Country Mills, strengthening the commitment to consistent and reliable service across all locations.
