Legend Seeds Acquires Kussmaul Seed Co.
Wisconsin Ag Connection - 09/24/2021
Legend Seeds, Inc. has acquired the Kussmaul Seed Company of Mount Hope. The acquisition enables Legend Seeds to grow business within and outside of its existing footprint.
"The acquisition of the Kussmaul Seed Company business fits well with Legend Seeds because of the shared pride in independence and similar philosophies on the importance of looking across all germplasm suppliers to find the products to meet specific grower
needs," said Jim Germscheid, Legend Seeds Sales Lead.
Focused on corn seed production and sales, the long-standing Kussmaul Seed Company was first started in 1934 by Rod and Al Kussmaul. Since then, the company was purchased by family member, Paul Klinkhammer, who is the son-in-law of Al Kussmaul.
Kussmaul Seed sells products in 13 states with distributors located on the east and west coast.
Under terms of the agreement, Legend Seeds will purchase the Kussmaul Seeds brand and retail sales rights, including the existing Kussmaul distributor network.
Legend Seeds will work with Kussmaul staff and dealers to begin a collaborative transition and will carry forward many of the products previously offered through the Kussmaul brand within Legend's existing brand portfolio. The Kussmaul brand will continue to
be utilized for sale of specialty products such as the existing Kussmaul Organic corn seed portfolio.
