Our Locations

In January, 2019, Reynolds United Cooperative and Halstad Grain Elevator Co. joined forces, agreeing by a vote of their members to move forward under the Valley United name. Headquartered in Reynolds, ND, Valley United employs roughly 100 full time employees, 120 during the busy season with seasonal help, and serves more than 800 customers in the Red River Valley of Minnesota and North Dakota.

Mission
The Board of Directors of our newly merged cooperative unanimously approved the following mission statement: Our mission at Valley United Co-op is to be the leader in providing quality products, services and markets to our customers while optimizing value to our patrons.
