W&H Cooperative likes headquarters on 16th Avenue North

For W & H Cooperative, consolidating its headquarters in one new location has worked out even better than anticipated.
“It’s worked out really well to be at the bulk plant property. Putting everything under one roof has been a benefit to the drivers because the paperwork is easier in one location. They can get their paperwork, grab a cup of coffee and take off in the morning,” W & H Cooperative General Manager Jim Pauk said.
Located on 16th Avenue North across from Hadar Manufacturing, the new W & H Cooperative headquarters opened in August of 2017.
W & H Cooperative employs 90 people currently (they’d like to be at 100 to 105 employees).
Three years ago, W & H Cooperative purchased a refined fuel, propane department and bulk plants in Dows. Some upgrades have been completed at The Station in Fort Dodge and more renovations are being investigated.
