Burrus Hybrids is proud
to announce the addition of Mike Langan as their new Sales
Manager. Langan brings extensive sales experience along with
customer relationship management skills. His position is
effective September 2, 2008.
Langan has 19 years of expertise in seed treatments,
insecticides, and fungicides technology as well as hybrid
characteristics. He has trained sales staff on positioning and
placement of product lineups. An acknowledged leader in the ag
profession, Langan is known for his ability to direct peers and
exceed sales expectations.
Langan fits perfectly into the Burrus operation with his
customer-driven approach and proven emphasis on relationships
based on honesty.
As Langan steps into his new role with Burrus, he will oversee
the Burrus sales staff as well as the newly acquired Hoblit
sales staff. His vast sales experience will assist Burrus
Regional Sales Managers (RSMs) as well as dealers to move
forward in spite of the challenges facing growers today.
Mike Langan resides in Lakewood, IL with his wife, Nora and
three children. He will be based in eastern Illinois but plans
to travel extensively in Illinois and Missouri with Burrus RSMs
and Hoblit District Sales Managers.
“The addition of Mike to our sales staff sends a strong message
to our dealers and customers that Burrus plans to support them
with high caliber people who know and understand the seed
business,” says Tom Burrus, President of Burrus Hybrids.
The Burrus family has partnered with corn growers since 1935.
As an independent, farm-family owned company, fair pricing,
outstanding yield, value, and performance are trademarks of the
Burrus operation that growers rely upon. Burrus Hybrids
purchased Hoblit Seed Company, Atlanta, IL in May 2008 to
strengthen its core strategy as the premier source of quality
seed corn. For the 74th consecutive season, Burrus offers 100%
free replant to back its products. |
