A New Chapter Begins

Aug 30, 2019


September 1 is the beginning of a new chapter for Full Circle Ag. Following the retirement of David Andresen, Jeff Thaler has been hired to fill the CEO position. Jeff comes to Full Circle Ag with a wealth of knowledge and 24 years of experience in the retail and wholesale ag marketplace. He and his family currently reside in Groton, South Dakota, and are extremely excited to be a part of the Full Circle Ag family. “I am looking forward to being part of a team that is focused on exceeding the needs of the member-owners, while delivering results with a focus on the future.”

In addition to joining the Full Circle Ag family and the Groton community, Jeff is looking forward to the fishing and hunting opportunities that the area provides. In his spare time, Jeff is in the process of restoring his grandfather’s 1949 Chevy pickup. Being an SDSU alumni and a Philadelphia Eagles fan, he is looking forward to the upcoming football season.

Full Circle Ag is thankful to have had David Andresen for 24 years and wish him the best in his retirement. They warmly welcome Jeff Thaler and look forward to what the future holds for the member-owned cooperative.
