You don't say where you are from. Agway as a corporation has been gone for several years here (Finger Lakes region). The corporate building in Syracuse has been vacant for that long also. Back several years ago, Growmark and Carolina-Vail divided up the marketing territory up here for seed, chemicals, and fertilizer. Independents and existing local feed dealers divided up the animal care market. I believe there were a few instances of franchised Agway stores surviving and the franchisee's turning to other suppliers so they could stay active but even some of those have closed in the last few years. Agway was a company some loved and some hated. Personally, they took a chance on me for fertilizer and chemicals when nobody else would and I am grateful. Some people got the short end of the stick when it came to grain marketing. Agway was a company that could not hold focus as it grew. It was very inefficient financially the last decade and change it existed. There are some here that probably have a more precise explanation as they probably knew people much closer to the situation than I was (ordinary customer).
