ABOUT US
Meet the Moline Team
While our staff is generally about 10 employees, we bring over 130 years of combined experience to the milling and grain-based food industry. Service is especially important to our business, and we strive to treat all our customers like one of our owner members. Please stop by and tell us your name, we would love to get to know you.
While none of us have been around since 1926, we have staff family members that were here many years before us. It’s a solid group with over 130 years of combined experience working here with decades beyond that committed to agriculture. Working together is important here and, like many small companies, we are often asked to wear several hats throughout the day and the seasons.

About Us
Moline Cooperative Milling, established in 1926, is one of the leading milling cooperatives in West Michigan. We provide reliable markets for cash crop producers and feed and agronomy services for farmers. Our goal is to provide high quality goods and services to our customers at reasonable prices. We take pride in our knowledgeable staff. They stay up to date on research and farming practices. Whether you have a few backyard critters and a small garden or feed a thousand head of livestock and farm thousands of acres, we pledge to give you our best effort.
History
The Moline Mill has been shaping the local community since 1926. The feed and grain facility were located here to utilize the railroad service for primarily grain and fertilizer transportation. The community has gone through many changes over the last century and the mill has adapted as well to meet the needs of our famer owners as well as other residents.
In 1987 we purchased the church, which is now our office and store and the parsonage next door. In 2002 we added the grain roaster allowing us to roast corn and soybeans for improved options for feed rations. Most recently we upgraded our self-propelled sprayer with a 120’ boom unit that matches well with planting widths of many of our customers.
Progress has continued at a steady pace. We updated our self-propelled fertilizer applicator and built a new sprayer tender trailer with increased capacity, improved technology, expanded storage options for additional ingredients, and faster sprayer fill times. Our corn receiving pit was also upgraded with a faster unload and loadout system and greater capacity, reducing both farm wait times during harvest and customer load times during sales opportunities. In early 2026, we added another 90-ton storage bin to support our growing roasted “Plenish bean” business.
During 2025 and 2026, we also made several important product line changes. We transitioned from Hubbard Feeds to Kalmbach Feeds as our primary complete feed and ingredient supplier to improve service and ensure better access to critical product needs. After Weldy Manufacturing discontinued livestock feeder production, we established a new partnership with The Hay Manager, whose feeders offer improved design and durability.
In spring 2026, we also added Dairy Doo as a featured line of compost, fertilizer, and other plant-input products. This Michigan-based company offers high-quality products for commercial farm fields, greenhouses, and backyard gardeners alike. Their strong reputation and limited dealer presence in our area helped us get this product line established quickly.
We remain committed to investing in efficiency and innovation while continuing to meet the evolving needs of our customers.
