NetworkGrain UK
Welcome to the website of NetworkGrain UK, the umbrella organisation for fourteen leading farmer-owned central storage co-operatives from across the UK. This site lets you explore the benefits that central storage can offer both farmers and grain users.
We start with a clear philosophy - no grain enters our store without us attempting to improve it. Our stores make it their business to give members the best possible ownership experience, from when they first buy and use storage space, right up to when they ultimately sell it. Every member of our stores experiences the confidence of knowing that from the time the crop leaves the farm, the very highest standards of storage and marketing will deliver the maximum value for them.
