Our Philosophy
At Remington Seeds, we believe 3 simple ideas have made us successful:
- Taking care of our customers
- Treating our employees like family
- Keeping it simple
Taking care of the customer also involves ensuring clear communication with customers throughout the year regarding crop production conditions. Employees are continually challenged to find innovative ways to contribute to customers' success.
We also care deeply about the safety and well-being of our employees. Employees are engaged in workplace safety programs to ensure a safe working environment. Competitive salaries and benefits are offered and employees are encouraged to develop an 'ownership' mentality through our profit sharing program.
Remington is 100% focused on seed production, conditioning, packaging and distribution. We are not directly involved in hybrid/varietal research, trait development or engaging in direct sales to farmers. We are focused entirely on helping our customers be successful as they market their products within the agriculture industry.
