About UPI
Our Mission
"The mission of United Producers is to provide necessary livestock services on a cooperative basis to its members in a business-like manner that will improve their income and be competitive in the industry."
United Producers, Inc. is and always has been a member-driven livestock cooperative with a rich heritage rooted in helping to create a better quality of life for our members, their families and their communities.
By staying focused on our mission, United Producers, Inc. is meeting the needs of today’s farmers with valuable services in three broad areas—livestock marketing, risk management and agricultural financing.
Our Heritage
United Producers, Inc. took shape in 1999 through the consolidation in operations of Producers Livestock Association (Ohio/Indiana) and MFA Livestock (Missouri). Over the next 2 years UPI brought into its’ operations Interstate Producers Livestock Association (Illinois) and the Michigan Livestock Exchange (Michigan, Indiana, Kentucky). Through our original identities we have provided needed livestock services to our farmer members for over 70 years.
Today, United Producers, Inc. services 45,000 members in Ohio, Kentucky, Illinois, Indiana, Michigan and Missouri. We operate 42 facilities and handle approximately 3 million head of livestock while maintaining a loan portfolio of over $50 million.
