Pendleton Grain Growers is restructuring, getting out of the retail and automotive business in order to focus on member needs and improve profitability.
The Pendleton, Ore., grain cooperative recently announced restructuring plans, including efforts to sell its six AG Supply
Retail division stores in northeastern Oregon and the Pendleton Automotive Service Center.
The co-op has 1,850 members. After struggling for several years, the cooperative decided to hone in on where the business thrives, considering ways to increase efficiency for members.
