For over 100 years, our goal at The DeLong Co., Inc. has been to provide information, products and services to the farming industry. In addition to being a grain elevator and major supplier of food grains domestically and internationally, we also provide seed, fertilizer and chemical inputs and services for growers in Wisconsin and Illinois. We offer delivery and storage of feed grains and seed products and also sell feed and seed manufactured for use in livestock feeds, pet foods and wild bird seeds at our mill in Clinton, WI. The DeLong Co. operates two warehouses that are used to wholesale and distribute various feed and pet products to dealers in Wisconsin, Illinois and Indiana.

At the time our business was founded, the principal crops grown by our customers were hay, wheat, oats, barley, malting barley and corn. Over a long period of time, our business has adapted and moved to fill the needs of local farmers. Corn became the dominant cash crop in our region and we began providing feed concentrates specially formulated for various types of livestock. We also added corn drying facilities, soybean facilities and more recently, vegetable and specialty Identity Preserved crop programs to our business.

Headquartered in Clinton, Wisconsin, our business operates locations around the U.S. and comprises five divisions of agricultural sales and service: agronomy, grain, seed, wholesale distribution and transportation. The DeLong Co., Inc. remains family owned and managed. Current board of directors are 4th generation and our shareholders are 4th, 5th and 6th generation direct descendants of William E. DeLong. Fifteen DeLong family members are employed within the company.
