MOOSE JAW — Moose Jaw Co-op has reached an agreement to acquire Blair’s Crop Solutions’ Liberty, Sask. location, a move that strengthens the Co-op’s position in the province’s agricultural sector while reinforcing its commitment to local producers and the communities it serves.
The acquisition, expected to close Sept. 1, will add the Liberty location’s storefront, agronomy services, custom trucking, and livestock nutrition operations to Moose Jaw Co-op’s agriculture portfolio. The site’s existing team have been offered opportunities to join Moose Jaw Co-op, ensuring continuity of service and adding depth to the Co-op’s experienced agricultural workforce.
Blair’s Crop Solutions, a long-standing Saskatchewan family business, shares Moose Jaw Co-op’s values of investing in communities and supporting farm families. This alignment of values, combined with Liberty’s strategic location, positions the Moose Jaw Co-op to better meet the growing needs of farmers and ranchers in the region.
“This acquisition is more than an expansion of our footprint, it’s an investment in the future of agriculture in our communities,” said Geoff Anderson, chief executive officer of Moose Jaw Co-op.
“By bringing Blair’s Liberty location into our network, we are making it easier for farmers and ranchers to access the expertise, products, and services they need, while creating new opportunities for local employment and economic activity," he continued. "It reflects our belief that when local agriculture thrives, our communities thrive. Together with our new team members, we look forward to building on Blair’s legacy and delivering value and excellence for years to come.”
With agriculture remaining a cornerstone of Saskatchewan’s economy, Moose Jaw Co-op’s expansion into Liberty represents both a commitment to serving member needs today and a strategic step toward long-term growth. By combining local presence with the Co-op’s scale and resources, the move ensures farmers and ranchers can continue to rely on a trusted partner that understands the unique demands of the Prairies.
