Orange Madison Cooperative Welcomed as Newest FS Member Company

Orange Madison Cooperative expands the FS brand along the East Coast

The FS System is excited to announce Orange Madison Cooperative as the newest FS Member Company. Orange Madison Cooperative is based in Orange, Virginia.

“We are pleased to welcome Orange Madison Cooperative as an FS Member Company,” said GROWMARK CEO Mark Orr. “They have the same value-added and go-to-market mindset as our FS Members. Orange Madison Cooperative complements our Mid-Atlantic operations and will be a terrific opportunity to grow the FS brand along the East Coast.”

“The FS System is a like-minded business partner and will help take Orange Madison Cooperative to the next level with technology adaptation and bolstering our supply chain network for customers,” said Justin Dreckman, Orange Madison Cooperative General Manager. “We believe the FS brand will have excellent recognition in the agriculture space in Virginia within the next five years.”

Orange Madison Cooperative will be known as EverGRO Cooperative starting on September 1, 2022. The name change from Orange Madison Cooperative to EverGRO Cooperative represents the larger territory that the cooperative now covers after a merger earlier this year that brought significant growth to EverGRO’s customer base.
