Star of the West is expanding its footprint across Michigan with the acquisition of Citizens LLC.
Lisa Woodke tells Brownfield the company purchased Citizen’s Charlotte, Vermontville, and Potterville locations, and intends to rent the Battle Creek and Otto Road locations.
“We will be continuing the locations and the activities that the farmers have been familiar with,” she says.
She says the agronomy, elevator, and food-grade processing facilities are a good fit for Star of the West’s portfolio including Citizen’s specialty soybeans like natto beans.
