Congratulations to the USDA’s Top 100 Coops!

In May, the USDA released a listing of the top 100 agricultural cooperatives, highlighting their near record-breaking successes in 2010.  According to the listing, the coops had combined revenue of $118 billion, with 23 of the listed 100 coops reporting revenue of more than $1 billion, and 47 more of the coops boasting over $500 million in revenue! Additionally, the asset base and profit margins increased for all 100 coops on the listing.

As a proud servicer of 13 of the USDA’s top 100 coops, and as one of the most respected cooperative accounting firms in the Midwest, Gardiner Thomsen wishes to extend a hearty congratulations to the top 100 coops, and wishes them continued business success in 2012 and beyond!
