What United Agri Systems does
United Agri Systems is a privately held B2B agricultural equipment distributor and systems integrator headquartered in Abbotsford, British Columbia, operating as part of the AgriHub family of companies. Founded in 1998, the company serves agricultural producers across Western Canada — primarily in the Fraser Valley, Vancouver Island, and the BC Interior — across three product divisions: poultry (layers, broilers, breeders, turkeys), dairy cow comfort, and grain storage and milling. The company is not a manufacturer; rather, it acts as a regional channel partner, design-builder, and service provider for a portfolio of international equipment brands including Chore-Time, Jansen Poultry Equipment, Vencomatic Group (exclusive BC dealer), Valli, Animat, Fancom, Sanovo, Lubing, Brock, Sudenga, TPI, Bintrac, Bioret Agri, and West Penetone.
The core technology portfolio spans ventilation and climate control systems (e.g., Vencomatic ECO Unit heat exchangers with up to 80% heat recovery and 25,000 m3/hr capacity, Eco Zero heat-exchange ventilation, Cortex control units for bio-security and monitoring, two-way sidewall curtain systems, MacroAir HVLS fans, hi-pressure misting), feeding and watering systems (Chore-Time ULTRAFLO, Lubing), housing systems (Jansen Aviary, Valli cage systems), egg handling (Sanovo FarmPacker/Palletizer), dairy comfort (Animat rubber flooring and stall mats), and grain handling (Brock silos, Sudenga hammermills and roller mills up to 48 TPH). These are integrated into turnkey design-build projects with permitting assistance, construction management, and installation.
Revenue is generated through four streams: equipment sales (hardware), design-build professional services (custom barn design, permitting, installation, startup), ongoing 24/7/365 equipment service and maintenance contracts, and consumables supply through the Horizon Livestock & Poultry Supply storefront (farm apparel, hardware, tools, medications, nutraceuticals). The go-to-market is enterprise field sales — direct, project-based engagements with established producers — supplemented by content marketing, project case studies, newsletter, website presence, and annual participation in the Pacific Ag Show. Pricing is quote-based with multi-year contracts, and a 25% tariff surcharge is currently applied to affected equipment lines in response to March 2025 US/Canada trade policy changes.
