Significant local investment brings jobs and expanded access to ag products across Manitoba and Southeast Sask. – all in the name of better serving Canadian farmers
BRANDON, Manitoba–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Farmers Business Network® (FBN®), the leading agtech marketplace, today announced the opening of its new distribution centre in Brandon, Manitoba. This facility will help meet demand and ensure fast delivery for farmers in the 2026 growing season, as the company sees increasing interest from Canadian farmers.
The investment will provide farmers across the region with faster, more reliable access to the products and services they need – when they need it.
Farmers Business Network, Inc. (FBN®) is on a mission to empower family farmers and give them every tool to maximize the ROI of their operation.
The new Brandon facility strengthens that mission in Manitoba by:
- Being conveniently located on the southeast side of Brandon with easy access for in-season farmer pickups.*
- Providing direct-to-farm delivery supported by FBN’s elite local truck fleet and industry-leading delivery network.
- Stocking more than 200 crop protection products.
- Facilitating local job growth by employing local staff and management serving farms across Manitoba and beyond.
“This facility is a game-changer for farmers in Manitoba,” said Kevin Adair, FBN Canada’s Regional Director. “It ensures farmers have timely access to the inputs they need while reinforcing our commitment to supporting agriculture in the region.”
FBN has operated in Canada for more than eight years, including seven years serving Manitoba farmers. The Brandon centre expands FBN’s Canadian network and underscores its promise of putting Farmers First® while creating local opportunities and strengthening the farm economy.
FBN continues to work to best serve Canadian farmers. The company has strengthened its commitment to growers in the region with new distribution centers in Alberta and Manitoba, the launch of six bulk fertilizer products and expanded wheat protection lineup, new ag equipment financing, and a fully redesigned digital platform to deliver a faster, simpler experience for Canadian growers.
The opening of the facility comes on the heels of rapid momentum for FBN. In recent months, FBN raised $50 million in funding to expand its industry-leading AI capabilities, and spun out its crop protection business into an independent entity.
*Orders are placed online at www.fbn.com. Once an order is placed online, the farmer receives a notification when it’s ready. At that time, the farmer calls the warehouse to schedule pickup or choose to have it delivered. Pickup will be available in spring 2026, in time for the planting season.
Proudly Canadian, Proudly Local
The Brandon distribution centre joins a growing network of Canadian facilities, further strengthening FBN’s commitment to providing confidence in every jug and support at every step. By hiring local staff, investing in local infrastructure, and supporting farm families with better access to inputs, FBN continues to stand by its mission: putting Farmers First®.
