Bill Rose, Crystal Rose-Fricker and Ed Rose, principals in Rose Agri-Seed, Inc and Pure-Seed Testing, Inc., announced that after a five-year hiatus they will re-enter the professional turfgrass business. The announcement comes after Rose Agri-Seed reached an amicable agreement that allows the company to market professional turfgrasses while continuing to provide custom seed coating and packaging services.
The recent agreement will allow Rose Agri-Seed to acquire select Pure-Seed Testing turfgrass varieties and inventories, which will help realign Rose Agri-Seed’s position on the professional turfgrass market.
Rose Agri-Seed Founder Bill Rose says, “We were an industry leader for over 35 years and we are very pleased to be back marketing turfgrass!”
Rose Agri-Seed will continue their vision of building innovation through research production and marketing. “This is essential in a time when turfgrass companies are battling commoditization and striving to differentiate from one another,” says Crystal Rose-Fricker, President of Rose Agri-Seed and Pure-Seed Testing. “The plan to rebuild a turfgrass marketing company is an important part of our strategy to provide an outlet for research and production and also diversify our products and services.”
“We are excited to reach out to old customers in addition to establishing new ones,” says Russ Hayworth, Marketing Manager of Rose Agri-Seed. “By utilizing our strengths and experiences, we will work hard to re-establish our identity of innovation while ensuring customer satisfaction.”
