Andre’s deep legal counsel experience will be instrumental as we scale the business throughout 2023 and beyond.”

“Since my first conversations with the team, I was impressed by AgriFORCE’s commitment to positively transform farm, food, and family every day, everywhere,” said Beaulieu. “With global legal experience spanning software, services, manufacturing, insurance, marketing and M&A, I am eager to bring a diverse perspective to AgriFORCE’s legal affairs and M&A activity both domestically and abroad.”
