Hello February,

Last words from Randy:

Since I shared my plans to retire a few weeks ago several people have asked what are you going to do? I think for the next few couple of months I will wake up with “nothing to do” at the end of the day, I’ll go to bed only having done half of it. Actually I have several projects to do at home. I also plan to do some charitable work.

Another question I have been asked is if PALS will continue to send this NEWSletter. That answer is yes. The biggest change will be the personal commentary will be from another person. The basic format will stay the same. Give us your feedback, tell us what you like in the newsletter or what you would like to see added.

Until my successor is announced please start sending purchases and sales inquiries to feedingredients@palsusa.com.. Our General Manager, Jason Reed, will be filling in the role until someone is hired.

Pricing in graphs reflect our highest retail price. We carry multiple brands of amino acids. Full pallet, truckload, customer pickup and other factors may reduce your purchase price.

PALS sells primarily 3 things: animal health products, animal agriculture equipment, and building & repair services.
