ICON Ag Solutions broke ground on new LeMars location

LeMars, IA - June 14, 2010

ICON Ag Solutions officially broke ground on an approximate 40,000 square-foot building on June 14, 2010 at 11 am. The new site will be located west of the Highway 75 bypass on Keystone Avenue. This location will replace its current site at 170th Street. Adam Timmerman, General Manager, stated that "ICON is very excited about the building project. The Plymouth County community has been a great place for one of our locations because of its great stability and support. The new location will provide our employees and customers with a larger site that will help to build and sustain current and future relationships."

The new LeMars location will house an expanded showroom, a much larger lot for equipment, and an overhead hoist to aid in the repair and setup process of equipment in the shop. ICON Ag Solutions will also be adding bulk oil systems to this location for customer convenience. The mobile service will continue to be run from LeMars. Breanne Harms, Territory Manager for John Deere, is excited for the company. "ICON Ag Solutions' steps to grow their presence in LeMars are a testament to their commitment to their customers in Plymouth County and the surrounding counties. Customers are going to notice a marked improvement in ICON's ability to serve their customers, and they'll be impressed with the facility when it opens."

Construction will began June 2010 with a target completion date of December 2010. The location will initially employ 16 people with plans to expand their sales, service, and parts departments in the future. The company expects to add 8 more positions after the opening of the new location.

ICON Ag Solutions is a premier John Deere retailer with a team of specialists working together to help customers select the right equipment to meet their needs and provide project solutions. ICON Ag Solutions formed in 2007 with its first three locations in Doon, Ireton, and Paullina. It later added the LeMars and Lawton locations in 2008.
