PGG Wrightson Ltd

PGG Wrightson (PGW) is a market leading, full-service agricultural supplies and services business operating across the rural supply chain throughout New Zealand for more than 170 years. PGW's enduring relationships with the rural community, technical expertise, focus on innovation, along with its nationwide presence, place it in an enviable position of being one of the best-known and most respected agricultural brands in New Zealand. PGG Wrightson was formed in October 2005 through the merger of Pyne Gould Guinness and Wrightson. Both founding companies had long histories dating back to 1851 and 1861 and were themselves the result of many amalgamations through the years. The company is a New Zealand business listed on the NZ Stock Exchange (NZX:PGW). PGW is a market leader in many of the segments in which it operates including rural retail supplies, horticultural supplies, pasture improvements, livestock, animal health and nutrition, wool, water, real estate, insurance, as well as technical advice and support.
