Blain’s Farm & Fleet
Blain Supply, Inc., doing business as Blain’s Farm & Fleet, is a regional, family-owned chain of 45 farm supply retail stores in four states (Wisconsin, Illinois, Iowa and Michigan) of the Upper Midwest region of the United States. Blain’s Farm & Fleet was an early adopter of “buy online, pick up at the store” in which all stores provide a drive-thru pick-up experience so online orders can be retrieved without consumers having to leave the car.
Partnership with SKKR
