Multinational sets up Marlborough offices

Multinational company Koch Fertilizer has relocated a subsidiary to Marlborough Business Park, in a move assisted by the North Wilts Economic Partnership, bringing new jobs to the town.

“The move gives us improved access to transportation near the M4 corridor,” said John Ridd of Koch Fertiliser, “and our close proximity to Swindon will serve as a good base for recruiting future employees, service contractors and consultants.”

“We appreciate the welcome and guidance we’ve received from the North Wilts Economic Partnership,” he added.

The company established temporary offices in Tidworth last year when a subsidiary of Koch Fertilizer acquired certain assets of the fertiliser importing, blending and marketing firm Usborne Fertiliser.

“Establishing our new offices in Marlborough positions Koch Fertiliser to better serve customers and add value in the markets we serve in the UK and Ireland,” said Jim Sorlie, senior vice president, supply and trading, for Koch Fertilizer.

Koch Fertilizer and its affiliates produce, distribute and globally market more than nine million metric tons nitrogen fertilisers annually.

Since 1989, the company has grown and expanded its global capabilities to serve customers’ needs for ammonia, urea and UAN.
