Steve Sukup shared how the company’s Sheffield location employs 600 people, helping keep small-town Iowa thriving while producing high-quality products. From the company’s early grain bins to today’s massive 164-foot diameter bins holding nearly 2.5 million bushels, Sukup has pushed the limits of efficiency and grain preservation. Their systems—including paddle sweeps, conveyors, bucket elevators, and pneumatic grain movers—are designed to protect grain quality and streamline operations for corn, soybeans, and small grains. Sukup sources all steel directly from U.S. mills, bringing in around a million pounds each week via their on-site rail facility, ensuring quality and reliability in every product. By combining engineering innovation, local commitment, and deep agricultural expertise, Sukup Manufacturing remains a trusted partner for farmers looking to manage crops effectively.
