Lt. Governor Becky Skillman is keynote speaker at grand opening for new fertilizer - Feature Home of the Week terminal of Helena Chemical Company
A new highcapacity fertilizer terminal and distribution center in Huntington was the backdrop for a grand opening hosted by Helena Chemical Company at the facility. Indiana Lt. Governor Becky Skillman was the keynote speaker at the event. The multi-million dollar terminal will service eight of Helena’s retail locations in Indiana, three in Ohio and three in Michigan. The terminal is located at Park 24 industrial park east of Huntington. It will also serve the 14 Helena locations as a distribution center for Helena products. Fertilizer products that will be run through the facility include potash, ammonium sulfate (AMS), pelletized lime, monoammonium phosphate (MAP) and di-ammonium phosphate (DAP), along with distribution of Helena products such as CoRoN, HydraHume and the TraFix line. According to Doug Goff, division manager for Helena in Carmel, the location fits the company’s growing business needs. “To serve our customers better with the products they need to grow profitable, productive crops, we needed a centralized, easily accessible location within a day’s drive of our branches in Indiana, Michigan and Ohio,” he explains. “This site also has a rail siding that can deliver bulk fertilizer and easy access to state highway 24 for our distribution network. The terminal can store up to 70,000 tons of product, and the Park 24 industrial park has plenty of room to expand as our business grows.” Goff works for Helena’s Northern Business Unit, one
of four regional business units of the company. Helena Chemical Company is one of the country’s largest national distributors of crop production inputs and services, including crop protection chemicals, fertilizer, seed and related services. The company was formed in 1957 in West Helena, Ark., and is now headquartered in Collierville, Tenn., near Memphis. In major agricultural regions across the country, Helena services customers from approximately 350 sales locations. Outside of agriculture, Helena’s Specialty Division serves golf course, forestry, industrial, and turf and ornamental markets. Helena also has its own line of products. Within the Helena Products Group, five product categories are divided into two groups— Crop Protection and Crop Production. The Crop Protection Group i n c l u d e s Adjuvants, Seed Treatments and Va l u e - A d d e d Products. The Crop
Production Group i n c l u d e s Nutritionals and BioScience products. Helena’s P ro p r i e t a r y Products are known for their quality and effectiveness in helping producers increase
the efficiency of their operations. Helena’s stated goal is to be the “preferred link between suppliers and customers to those who grow good and fiber and manage vegetation.”
