Our Story
OUR STORY
Our Story
In 1990 a seed was planted that has grown into a national resource center focused on ag retailers and developing solutions for risk management, safety and regulatory compliance that directly affect their business.
Founded by Allen and Susan Summers, our early years were spent creating a unique proprietary collection of safety and compliance training materials ‒ as well as software systems and compliance assistance products, services and processes ‒ to help our clients comply with a variety of federal regulations.  In 2005, the Summers’ donated their business to become a private, not-for-profit organization and the Institute was formed.  After a long career serving the ag industry, Allen and Susan retired in 2018.
Today, Asmark is led by Brian Mason, President & CEO, Amber Duke, Vice President of Marketing & Communications, Donna Jones, Vice President of Operations, Megan Hill, Vice President of Information Technology, and Dustin Warder, Vice President of Regulatory Affairs, along with a talented, caring team of 30 service-driven individuals.  Asmark Institute is a trusted partner and leading provider of regulatory compliance information and assistance within the agricultural retail sector.  Our compliance management services and products help agricultural retail businesses of all sizes.  Within the industry, we are known for:
  • Providing materials, services and products that rely on a proven approach to make managing regulatory compliance easier for agricultural retail businesses of all sizes.
  • Developing new solutions to help clients meet regulatory requirements.
  • Collaborating, when needed, with state and national associations and government agencies in support of the regulatory compliance needs of its clients.
  • Assisting clients with questions related to agency interactions.
  • Supporting the retail industry’s efforts to arrive at fair and reasonable regulation.
WHO WE SERVE
From nationals and cooperatives with several locations to independent retailers with only a few facilities, we serve ag retailers across the United States.
