Agricultural Manufacturer Moving Production Back To Canada

A farm equipment company based in Winnipeg is relocating a big chunk of its manufacturing work back to Canada from the US.

 

Buhler consolidated its US manufacturing into one plant in Minnesota last summer, but is going to move that work back across the border to Morden Manitoba. This factory will be the primary source of its Farm King production, which includes augers, mowers and tillage tools. The company's other product lines include Versatile tractors. Buhler has plants in Winnipeg and Morden, Manitoba and also in Alberta, in Vegreville.

 

Product lines currently manufactured in its facility in Wilmar, Minnesota, will be relocated to the Morden, Manitoba factory during this winter season.  Buhler anticipates production ceasing in Wilmar early in 2021.
