McNess came of age as entrepreneurs in the small industrial town of Freeport, IL. 1929 The year the stock market crashed, we expanded our Freeport facility by nearly 60,000 square feet to keep pace with demand. 1940s We developed a simplified and efficient process of tablet production to manufacture vanilla tablets for the U.S. Army under war contracts, which later evolved into an export business in Asia. 1958 Fred McNess and Harold Marsh modernized mineral products into vitamin and mineral premixes as the company’s manufacturing base expanded from only consumer goods to include livestock feed. 1980s We unveiled one of the first computerized ration-balancing programs in the industry. 1992 We acquired the Canada-based Miracle Feeds, a commodities and brewers grain company, and the Furst-McNess Company became a North-American based, multinational company. 2013 We invested in a state-of-the-art swine research facility, solidifying our commitment to research-driven products proven on farm. 2017 We acquired Big Gain Wisconsin LLC, joining two already-strong livestock feed and nutrition companies to better serve the needs of the livestock producers in Wisconsin and other Midwestern states. 2019 We launched our Furst Animal Health branding to distinguish our innovative health and technology products. Today Now, the Furst-McNess Company celebrates over 100 years of business success by delivering quality livestock feeding solutions to customers around the world.
