QLF Adds Suspension Capabilities to Wellsville, Ohio Manufacturing Plant

Dodgeville, WI - Quality Liquid Feeds, Inc.(QLF) announces the addition of suspension capabilities to our Wellsville, Ohio, Liquid Supplement Feed Manufacturing Plant. With this major investment, QLF has increased the ability to serve our growing dealer and producer customers. The facility additions were started in November 2009 and complete in March 2010.

QLF made the initial investment and commitment to the area in 1999. We have continued by adding products and resources. Dr. Stephen Emanuele joined our team in 2009 as a Dairy Business Development Manager mainly focusing on the Northeast.

There are now separate buildings to isolate suspension products for feedlot and dairy liquid feed products. Three manufacturing systems are dedicated to separate product lines. The following are the dedicated lines:

1. Ionophores, calcium suspension, macro and micro minerals and other ingredients.

2. Ionophore free for specialized horse feed, suprcoats, millcoats and non-medicated.

3. Total mixed ration and conventional pasture products.

Flexibility and efficiency are focuses for this facility located in the Port of Columbiana County. A combination unloading facility with the ability to unload by truck, rail and barge, give a great deal of flexibility for receiving a wide assortment of ingredients. Efficiency is highlighted in the ability to unload a barge in less than 14 hours compared to previously taking three to seven days. The plant has 22 finished feed load out tanks and 26 ingredient tanks. For the convenience of the drivers coming in and out, the plant has two truck scales. Last year there were 131 different products made at this facility.

From this location, QLF services primarily the states of Ohio, Pennsylvania, New York, West Virginia and Virginia. This manufacturing plant follows FDA guidelines and is FCI certified and Safe Feed/Safe Food certified through AFIA (American Feed Industry Association). With these certifications, third party agents inspect the plant and specific procedures are in place.

As a nationwide innovative leader in the developing and manufacturing of liquid feed supplements for dairy and beef, QLF prides itself by being the largest user of domestic cane molasses, being a family owned company and having a reputation for making products based on quality, consistency and service. Our plants in Dunlap, IA, LaSalle, IL, Wellsville, OH and Menomonie, WI are specifically equipped to produce high-quality calcium-suspension feeds.
