    Guysin this area never did see an FNA delivery truck. They had to go to the local retailer and buy What they needed to keep going hoping that the delivery would show up any moment. FNA told them they would cover the difference in price for whatever they used before the delivery showed up. The delivery never did show up, seeding is done.

        First started with them timely delivery was problematic but later on not too bad. Now sounds like the wheels are falling off. They were selling the fact they had a bunch of new generics for spring but no pmra at the time. Kinda putting the cart before the horse. Sell the dream sell memberships and glyphosate. Another ploy like the fertilizer plant, grain terminal etc. Drum up excitement and play on farmers emotions. Now they can’t make good on it. Nothing new.

            The youngest sister married Kevin Hegedus the financial planner guy On the radio so they probably have their money placed well away from the business risk.
            I don’t know why or how, but way back in the day the Mann’s were big farming around Hodgeville (?) and they had an office in a nice downtown Saskatoon building. I want to say the name on the door was AG Ventures 2000 or something like that. I think I went in to ask what it was all about and the secretary said this is their farm office. I was young and thought they must have a huge farm to have an office in the city.
            About 5 years later FNA appeared and it kind of made sense to have a membership to save on parts and they had a fuel program for awhile. Eventually the discounts started not to fit my farm and did not renew membership.

              So that’s the connection to Hegedus. Used to put on those financial planning luncheons in Saskatoon. Kevin would speak, Jerry White, and guy from FNA. Really was just a sell job for their businesses but what isn’t. Went to one once and sat with a bunch of financial planners who criticized the guys for questionable practices. At the time I thought they were competition and jealous but they were on to something.

                  Those meetings were a great marketing bundle. To be fair, there were many farmers that were looking at selling land and machinery to retire and needed financial investment and management advice.
