Sipcam Agro USA announces the acquisition of Odom Industries
Sipcam Agro USA recently acquired the assets of Mississippi-based Odom Industries, including plants, with formulation, packaging and warehousing.
Brothers Donald D. Odom, Sr., and W.R. Odom, Sr., founded the company in 1989. Odom Industries is comprised of two operating facilities in Waynesboro and Pachuta, Miss., and a large storage warehouse in Shubuta, Miss. The combined facilities have over 320,000 square feet of production and warehousing capability, located on 40 acres.
Sipcam Agro Solutions, a subsidiary of Sipcam Agro USA, will run the new business. The company says this acquisition will enable it to be fully integrated from the synthesis through formulation and packaging to make the end-use product.
“We will continue custom tolling with our existing customer base and plan to expand the facility in Waynesboro to accommodate all of Sipcam’s additional volumes,” said Brent Marek, CEO and COO of Sipcam Agro USA. “We expect to invest heavily in plant expansions over the next two years, giving us increased efficiencies, production output and a new fungicide plant.”
