OMAHA, NEB. — The Scoular Co. has acquired the assets of KAMO Grain Inc. in Pittsburg, Kas. Established in 1990, the business includes a 550,000-bu country elevator with access to all Class I railroads.
Situated near the Missouri state line in southeastern Kansas, Pittsburg is 150 miles east of Wichita. Andrew Determan, who heads Scoular operations in the area, said the KAMO assets will complement the company’s existing regional business, which includes operations in Butterfield and Adrian, Mo.
“We’re pleased to be adding Pittsburg to our network of facilities, giving area farmers a convenient and competitive market for their grain,” Mr. Determan said. “We’re looking forward to building upon the strong business that the Elnicki family established and to continuing the same great customer service that area producers have come to expect.”
