MOULTIRE, Ga. — Nutrien Ag Solutions were officially inducted into the Moultrie-Colquitt County Chamber of Commerce Friday, July 20.

Once known as Agrium but thanks to a merger between Agrium and Potash Corp, Nutrien Ag Solutions was born. They are one of the biggest agriculture retailers in the world with multiple divisions inside and outside of the United States.

Georgia is home to more than 30 locations for them, and they have made Moultrie home to their Georgia division office.

Nathan Packer, general manager of the Georgia division for Nutrien Ag Solutions, said he is excited to bring the company to the community.

“Nutrien wants us to be part of the community and today we wanted to invite everyone to see what we have built here,” Packer said at Friday’s ribbon cutting ceremony. “We pride ourselves on being number one and being able to service the community.”

The new Nutiren Ag building was built in the location of the old Moultrie Alternator shop. It now houses the division office and a terminal that does fertilizer blends for all stores. Across the road is a retail center that supplies the local farmers.

Packer described the building as one of the most advanced buildings they have built with a digital secretary where people can just touch a name on the screen to get in contact with anyone they want in the building and a video conference room.

“We have incorporated a lot of technology in this building to keep up with the growing ag community,” said Packer. “The ag industry is changing and it’s changing rapidly, and we see in the next 12 to 18 months the old way of taking orders on pads will be replaced with doing everything on your cell phone.”

Tommie Beth Willis, president of the Moultrie Colquitt County Chamber of Commerce, was excited to welcome the company as a great addition to the chamber.

“They’ve had a presence here before,” Willis said, “but it’s very exciting to see the growth of the company and the community.”
