Co-Alliance Cooperative, Inc. and Signature Farms, LP have created Legacy Feed, LLC, a new feed manufacturing and swine management company.
Headquartered in Indianapolis, Indiana, the new company will deliver an integrated swine production service to farm families in eastern Indiana.

The company announces that Legacy Feed will build a state-of-the-art feed mill in Millville, Indiana. This facility will have 1.5 million bushels of grain storage and the capacity to produce 300,000 tons of pelleted hog feed.
Legacy Feeds will combine its feed production with swine management services to assist local farm families in producing top tier pork products.

Both companies are optimistic about the opportunity to work together to bring a more complete solution to their customers.
Co-Alliance Cooperative is a member-owned supply and marketing operation with farmer-members and customers across Indiana, Ohio, and Michigan specializing in agronomy, propane, fuels, grain, seed, hog production and feed.
“Legacy Feed brings together two strong businesses with a successful history in swine production," said Kevin Still, president and CEO of Co-Alliance Cooperative. "This new business will allow Co-Alliance to provide a more diversified offering in our eastern geography. I anticipate this strong combination will provide synergies and help us create more value in the swine production space."
In February 2022, Co-Alliance moved its headquarters to Indianapolis to accommodate its growing team and is more centrally located in its footprint. Co-Alliance’s overall employee numbers grew in 2021 through a merger with Harvest Land Co-op.
Signature Farms is a swine management company based out of Milroy, Indiana, with production partners throughout Indiana and Northwest Ohio.
“Combining Signature Farms’ strong legacy of swine management services with Co-Alliance’s proven success record in swine feed manufacturing will allow our teams to provide a leading swine production company in which our customers and employees thrive and provide opportunity for growth,” added Eric Freeman, operations manager of Signature Farms.
