General Info: Inland Empire Milling Co., Inc was founded in 1919 by William and Ernest Schauble. For over 40 years Inland Empire Milling Co operating as a flour mill, provided regional customers and customers in Eastern Asia with wholesome refined flour from wheat produced in the Pacific Northwest. Our family business has changed quite a bit since then, but the name, family, and approach to business remains the same. We continue to provide quality products, as well as grain marketing assistance and crop input advice with small town family values and friendly service. Our Business Our mission adopted in 1919 has never changed: Provide our customers with quality that exceeds their expectations, delivery that meets their specific and unique needs, and at a price that’s competitive with other suppliers’ product., Ernest Schauble, founder. Throughout our long history, the Schauble family has never lost sight of our mission statement. This attention to detail has enabled us to differentiate ourselves from the large mass suppliers. Our customers know where their products were produced, who managed the crop throughout its production lifecycle, and who handled and shipped the agricultural commodities before arriving at their door. Albert Schauble/Director: Began working at Inland Empire Milling Co., Inc as a child for his father, Ernest Schauble and Grandfather William Schauble. In the early days, Albert helped hand sew flour sacks, stack flour bags into boxcars and other high labor jobs. Albert quickly proved his worth was much better utilized in the office, where he handled contracting and agricultural procurements from the local farmers. Albert still remains active in the day to day activities of the company. He trades futures and options to manage the financial risk of commodity inventory as well as provides valuable insight into the commodity markets in general. Without the devotion and commitment of over 50 years to our family company, we would not be as successful as we are today. Jerry Schauble/ President: Graduated from Washington State University in 1983. Jerry has been actively involved with the family business for over 27 years. His knowledge of various wheat varieties enables Inland Empire Milling Co., Inc tailor our products to best suit our customers’ needs. Jerry manages operations, seed production and contracting, domestic freight logistics, and domestic sales.

General Info: AgVentures NW is a limited liability company that is wholly owned by Reardan Grain Growers, Inc and Odessa Union Warehouse Cooperative. In 2005, both companies began looking into new ways to make their businesses more efficient. The retirement of RGG’s manager coupled with OUW’s willingness to explore business options presented a timely opportunity for both. For two years, the companies were co-managed and in May of 2007, the new “umbrella” company was formed. AgVentures NW employs and manages all personnel and facilities used in the business operations for the two cooperatives. Even though marketing and transportation are combined to optimize logistics and sales, each company maintains its individual capital and equity structure. Since joining together, the common interests of the collective boards have been well served. AgVentures NW has exceeded expectations even in these years of dry conditions and poor economy. The combined storage capacity of elevators managed by AgVentures NW is over 15.5 million bushels. Our 5 offices in Reardan, Harrington, Davenport, Ephrata, and Odessa provide local and accessible resources for current information and valuable marketing services. Odessa Union Warehouse and Reardan Grain Growers are farmer owned cooperatives offering grain storage and marketing services located in Eastern Washington State. Our service area includes over 1, 400 members and 48 separate storage facilities at 22 locations in Spokane, Lincoln, Adams, and Grant counties. Combined with our marketing and storage services, we also offer products such as certified and common seed, marketing counsel, futures and options brokerage, and farm storage marketing. Over a dozen locally contracted and 5 company owned trucks can readily and efficiently move grain from our facilities or yours to market destinations. Our 9 unit train loading facilities and ownership in a barge loading operation through Co Grain on the Snake River greatly enhance the marketing flexibility we offer.
