Founded in 1953, Brandt Consolidated was created by Glen Brandt and his sister, Evelyn Brandt Thomas, to help Illinois farmers adopt new and profitable technologies for their operations. These founding tenets still hold true today. Under leadership by President and Chief Executive Officer Rick C. Brandt, son of Glen Brandt, Brandt emerged as a leader in crop technologies and continues to grow. Today, the Brandt family has grown to include more than 200 employees in more than 10 states and several countries around the world.

Because Brandt is an exciting, aggressive, and family-values based company, a partnership with Justin Allgaier and Turner Motorsports seemed natural. While the 2011 national touring series is a breakthrough season for Brandt Racing, it’s also the first season Sunoco Green E15 ethanol is a requirement for all race participants. Brandt shares NASCAR’s commitment to clean fuel technology and is proud to help support the American farmers that make ethanol possible. The Brandt team continues to work tirelessly to improve crop technologies for growers worldwide.
