The Andre business began in 1914 when Floyd Andre and William Sweet leased a mill together in Montrose, PA. By 1924, the partners bought the real estate, and in 1931, Floyd's son, DeWitt, purchased Mrs. Sweet's partnership interest, and the firm became Andre & Son. DeWitt's three sons joined in 1958-1965, leading to growth in feed sales and expansion to the current site, with a bulk fertilizer blending plant. In the 1990s, three fourth-generation family members joined, and the business continued to grow with a commercial turf division, farm and home store, and Powersports division. Andre & Son, Inc. remains a locally owned enterprise for now over 100 years thanks to the support of their employees, customers, and friends. |
