BRANDT Expands Distribution in Argentina
Tampa, Florida (17 June 2022)--BRANDT has reached agreement with Enrique M. Bayá Casal, S.A. (EBC), of Argentina, for the distribution of plant nutrition products for use on row crops. Products include a range of BRANDT’s advanced foliar micronutrients, including the BRANDT Smart System® and Manni-Plex® lines.
EBC, a family business, has many parallels to BRANDT. Founded in 1964 by Enrique M. Bayá Casal, the company started in the seed business and has evolved into a retail business that includes hybrid seeds, agrochemicals, spray equipment and veterinary products. Today, EBC is led by Enrique J. Bayá Casal and boasts 20 farmer-facing facilities, its own farms and a grain trading operation.
“We are very pleased to partner with Bayá Casal,” said Russell Gardner, Director of Commercial Development for BRANDT International. “Our products are an excellent fit for their business, and we share their commitment to bringing innovation and quality solutions to their growers.”
“We are very excited to be working with BRANDT,” said Enrique J. Bayá Casal, EBC’s president. “We are always striving to give the best service and tools to our growers, and we look forward to a growing and lasting partnership with BRANDT.”
Laura Battel, BRANDT technical sales manager, helped shape the final agreement and will manage the relationship going forward. “I’ve known Bayá Casal for many years,” said Battel. “I’m so proud to be working with such a prestigious company.”
