After major acquisition, Andersons CEO expects company worth to triple
Share Tweet Share Email Comments Print ADVERTISEMENT The Andersons Inc., already a $3 billion a year company, will balloon to a $9 billion company if, as expected, it completes its planned acquisition of Lansing Trade Group LLC. More importantly, the $305 million acquisition, which was announced Monday and is expected to close by Jan. 31, gives the Monclova Township-based agribusiness a significant opportunity for growth, Pat Bowe, president and CEO of The Andersons, said Tuesday in a conference call with Wall Street analysts. “Acquiring and merging Lansing into The Andersons will create a business of complementary grain and ingredient assets and trade flow with greater scale that significantly expands our presence in the agricultural marketplace,” Mr. Bowe said.

The ‘unbelievable’ career of Mike Anderson
LOCAL LEGEND: Reflecting on overcoming obstacles on the football field and in business, Mike Anderson says simply, “I don’t like to lose.” (Photo by Collin Richie) In the kitchen of his namesake restaurant on West Lee Drive, 69-year-old Mike Anderson Sr. still shows up to work most weekday mornings, though he doesn’t stay quite as long as he once did. The glory days of his previous career spent on the gridiron are starting to catch up with Anderson, gradually wearing him down. “Football has come back to haunt me,” he says, with a slight shrug. In a sense, though, the game never really left him. It’s become a part of who Anderson is and a major driver of his success, not only as an LSU football great but also as an iconic south Louisiana restaurateur. It’s also what has intrinsically tied him to one well-defined area, a short, two-mile radius in south Baton Rouge where his career can be traced. It begins in the Southdowns … [Read more...] about The ‘unbelievable’ career of Mike Anderson
