January 6, 2012  By  Mike Jiggens


Direct Solutions, a division of Agrium Advanced Technologies®, has launched a new logo and tagline as part of a larger strategic branding initiative to support Direct Solutions’ customer-centric focus and growth in the green industry and other markets it serves.

The decision to enhance the brand and logo stems from the acquisition and integration of Evergro in Canada, making Direct Solutions North America’s largest distributor of slow- and controlled- release fertilizers, plant protection products, grass seed and micronutrients for these specialty markets. thumb_direct-solutions-enhanced-b
