Shownotes

In this episode of The Angus Table, host Scott Wright sits down with Todd Wilshire, managing director of Agricon and former owner of Wilshire and Co, for a comprehensive conversation about building successful agricultural businesses.

Todd shares insights from his journey studying agronomy at Gatton, returning after travelling to grow the family's Tenterfield produce store into a six-location group sold to Pursehouse Rural, and the strategic acquisition and subsequent growth of animal nutrition company Agricon.

Todd and Scott discuss key business lessons about having a vision and staying patient, as well as the importance of diversification, team building, strong supplier relationships, finding market gaps, and why face-to-face relationships still beat online shopping.

So pull up a chair at the Angus Table for insights on rural entrepreneurship and creating value in agricultural supply chains.
