AgVend continues to add to how its Nexus partner network adds to its portal features and functionality.
To further develop its digital financing offering, AgVend and the Cooperative Finance Association have added to their partnership exhibited in the AgVend Nexus Finance product.
“Since 2020, we’ve partnered with AgVend to improve efficiency for ag retailers and growers. This strengthened partnership marks a significant step forward in supporting our retail partners,” said Ross Johnson, CEO of CFA. “By integrating our flexible loan products into retailer’s AgVend-built platforms, we’re making it easier than ever for them to manage financing, serve their customers, and help growers succeed.”
Aiming to make doing business more convenient, this is an integrated feature for AgVend portal users.
“CFA Financing available in our Ag Valley Portal has been a game-changer for us,” said Jeff Krejdl, CEO of Ag Valley. “From our sales team to our back-office processes, it has streamlined everything. It’s not just a tool—it’s an impactful time-saver and a major improvement in how we manage financing with our customers. It allows growers to be more independent and our sales team to stay more informed.”
Since its embedded on the portal of their retailer, farmers have a centralized approach to loan management with a simplified process and time savings.
“In order to deliver the best customer experience, we need to make it easy for our growers,” said Tim Burress, CEO of River Valley Cooperative. “Having CFA financing built into our River Valley Portal cuts down admin time on our end while letting growers pay directly through the portal, putting more financial control in their hands—it’s a win for everybody.”
AgVend says this is an example of how a partnership demonstrates increased connectivity, which can lead to greater customer loyalty and efficiencies in operations.
“The integration of CFA financing into AgVend’s platform showcases our commitment to building a more digitally connected supply chain,” said Tracy Linbo, Chief Commercial Officer at AgVend. “Beyond simplifying processes, we aim to deliver greater value, empowering ag retailers to serve customers better and equipping growers with tools to drive success. Partnering with CFA expands our reach for ag retailers and enhances AgVend’s Nexus Finance product, driving innovation and collaboration across ag retail.”
