The Hudye Group

Family Owned—Three Generations Strong

Paul Hudye, now in his late eighties, started Hudye Farms in small-town Saskatchewan in 1946, growing mostly wheat and canola and later producing livestock, including bison and elk. In the 1980s Paul and his sons Ben and Greg started Hudye Soil Services, a full-service farm supply company, which today includes three retail fertilizer chemical plants. Meanwhile, they began eyeing farmland in the U.S., starting with a few sections of ground in eastern Colorado.
 
"We learned early on from our father that relationships matter," says Ben, who is president and CEO of the Hudye Group. "It is our philosophy that no one works for us, they work with us."
 
As well as Hudye Soil Services, family business pursuits now include grain farming in Canada and the U.S., wind energy projects, oil and gas development and real estate investments, and the family owns 95% of the 35,000 acres it farms. You don’t garner that kind of asset base without a keen sense of relationship building.

Today, three generation of Hudyes are bringing insight and energy to this thriving family business.
