Spreader Specialties, LLC
Spreader Specialties is an exclusive dealer of BBI SPREADERS, a company committed to bringing the best spreaders to the field, to the golf course, and to the roads of the Northern Plains and beyond. Why does Spreader Specialties maintain a sole commitment to BBI—take it from Mike Olson himself: “People ask me why I only stock BBI, and I always tell them that if there’s a better-built spreader for the value, I’d sell it. I’ve been selling spreaders for nearly 15 years, and BBI gives my customers twice the warranty and twice the options of the spreaders I’ve sold before. Salford BBI designs and manufactures Fertilizer Spreaders, Lime Spreaders, Litter Spreaders, Compost Spreaders, Rock Spreaders, Aggregate Spreaders, Sand Spreaders, Fertilizer / Lime Spreaders, Litter, Lime and Shavings Spreaders.

About Us
Mike Olson grew up on an Iowa family farm and went to Iowa State knowing that he wanted to be a part of the business of agriculture. After receiving his degree in agriculture sales and marketing, Mike did just that, launching a career that’s now spanned nearly three decades working in purchasing, sales, marketing, and distribution of everything from trucks and tractors to sprayers and spreaders that shape the farming business in the Northern Plains of Minnesota, Wisconsin, Iowa, and the Dakotas.
Along his journey, Mike Olson has owned a corn and soybean farm, a golf course, and developed residential neighborhoods in and around his base of operations in Austin, Minnesota.
Mike is now celebrating eight years in business with his team of professionals at Spreader Specialties, near the River Oaks Golf Course he owns and the Cedar Ridge neighborhood he developed. Spreader Specialtiesis an equipment dealership focused on high-performance, premium spreaders optimized for farming applications, golf course turf management, and road maintenance.

Our Commitment
The Spreader Experts for Agriculture, Golf and Athletics, and Infrastructure
At Spreader Specialties, we sell the finest equipment—spreaders for a variety of farming applications, including fertilizer, lime, and litter, equipment for gravel and other road toppings for construction companies and municipal needs, and something near and dear to our own hearts, spreaders optimized to manage the beautiful golf courses of our neck of the woods. And we sell this equipment to even finer people—the farmers and ranchers, the golf course managers, and the municipalities and construction companies of the Northern Plains states of Minnesota, Wisconsin, Iowa, and the Dakotas.
Since our founding, we have dedicated ourselves to doing business with a long-term perspective. That means the day we sell a spreader to a customer is just the beginning—closing the sale is the opening of a new relationship that we know we will enjoy for many years to come.
Our commitment to our customers means that we’ll be there for them, whenever and wherever they need us, with the parts and service required to keep their BBI spreaders working to bring the best cost-in-use and return on investment in the industry.
In addition to providing fast, dependable solutions on the parts and services front, we also maintain an ongoing commitment to customer education. You’ll see Spreader Specialties professionals out in the community, demonstrating everything from “big iron” to the small tech gadgets that drive precision agriculture for higher yields, greener turf, and greater efficiency across the board.
