Great Lakes Grain announces Don Kabbes as its new general manager

Don Kabbes
Great Lakes Grain is pleased to announce that Don Kabbes has accepted the position of general manager, effective April 4, 2016.

Kabbes has demonstrated exceptional leadership ability during his more than 32 years working in the Ontario Co-operative System, holding increasingly progressive positions and most recently as the market development manager for Great Lakes Grain since 2010.

Kabbes has had a passion for agriculture his entire life. He received his diploma in agricultural business management from Centralia College of Agricultural Technology. He has served on numerous agricultural and community boards and committees, such as the Grain Farmers of Ontario and the Petrolia Minor Hockey Association. He also operates a small cash crop farm in west Lambton County.

Kabbes succeeds Alex Elliott who has announced his plans for retirement with Great Lakes Grain in December this year. Elliott has served the agricultural co-operative system for more than ten years and has been instrumental in providing great leadership towards the advancement of Great Lakes Grain during his tenure.

Please join us in congratulating Don on his new position.
