Farmers Warehouse is a division of A. L. Gilbert Company,
established in 1892 by its founder Amos Lawrance Gilbert in Oakdale
California. A newspaper article from July of 1900 reports that a new
warehouse is being built in Oakdale to be known as Farmers Warehouse
and managed by A. L. Gilbert. That name was used by the company
until it was changed to the Gilbert company and later to A. L.
Gilbert Company.
In 1988 the A. L. Gilbert company again assumed the name of
Farmers Warehouse when the sacked feed business was acquired from
the Steele family when they closed their plant in Modesto and the
Farmers Warehouse plant and warehouse was relocated to its present
location in Keyes.
In 1992 the distribution center in East Nicolaus was purchased
from Jim Roosevelt.
The Company has continued to grow and expand its product line. We
proudly produce Showtime show feeds, LMF and TDI horse feeds as well
as our Equi line of horse feeds. We also distribute many other fine
products. The company has grown to have customers in seven states and
many export locations.
