History
Danish Agro traces its history back to 1901, when Stevns Foderstofforening was founded on the Stevns Peninsula. Since then the company has been through numerous mergers, and in 2006 it changed its name to Danish Agro.[3]
In the autumn of 2009, Danish Agro took over its competitor, Landbrugets Andel, when the latter was faced with financial difficulties.[4]
DAVA Agravis International
DAVA Agravis International Holding A/S is a joint venture between Danish Agro, Vestjyllands Andel and Agravis. In October 2014, the company took over Getreide AGs' retail activities in Germany.[1]
