GrainFox has announced the acquisition of Kostal Ag Consulting, an agricultural market analysis and consulting firm founded by Greg Kostal.
GrainFox says this move shows their commitment to enhancing market research, insights, and digital farm wealth tools for producers and agricultural professionals across North America.
Greg Kostal, founder of Kostal Ag Consulting, will join GrainFox to expand services offered by GrainFox, leveraging Kostal’s nearly four decades of market insights and analysis.
“I’ve dedicated 37 years to this industry, 20 of those years as a solo operation, during which time I’ve written over 4,600 reports,” Kostal says. “After careful consideration, partnering with GrainFox makes sense for me, my family, and for those who have trusted my research and insights throughout my career. This will significantly strengthen our research capabilities and provide greater resources for both GrainFox and Kostal clients. I’m confident that our clients will see the benefits, and I look forward to contributing to our growth together.”
Mark Lepp, GrainFox founder and CEO, adds that “Greg’s exceptional market knowledge and decades of experience will be invaluable as we continue to grow and innovate in the agricultural sector. With this acquisition, we’ve strengthened our team by bringing the best in the industry under one umbrella. Our team’s deep expertise now stands unparalleled, putting us at the forefront of the industry. Together, we’re poised to deliver even more robust and comprehensive solutions to our clients.”
Further details will be shared in the coming months as the teams integrate. Clients of Kostal Ag Consulting can expect business to continue as usual.
