DURHAM, N.C., Feb. 20, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Sipcam Agro USA, Inc. is proud to announce its expansion into the Canadian agricultural market, bringing North American formulation capabilities and years of crop and turf protection product experience. Sipcam Agro USA Inc., owned by the Sipcam-Oxon Group, a privately owned Italian company, has been a long-standing participant in the global agricultural industry since 1946.

"This is an exciting time for Sipcam Agro as we increase our customer base in another country and bring quality alternative solutions to the Canadian market," said Brent Marek, CEO/COO of Sipcam Agro and a Canadian native. "We are very knowledgeable and experienced in crop, turf and ornamental agriculture and are ready to deliver superior, proven products to Canadian growers for improved crop yield and harvest quality."
