Wisconsin Ag Connection - 06/26/2008

The leadership at the Miller-St. Nazianz company is being transferred to the fifth generation. In an announcement on Wednesday, President and CEO John C. Miller announced the appointment of his son, John W. Miller, to take over his responsibilities. The move takes effect immediately.

"I am proud to announce that my son has been appointed President and CEO of Miller St. Nazianz, Inc.," Miller said in a statement. "I will take the position of Chairman of the Board and will serve as an advisor to John and other Company leaders as needed. I have every confidence that John will lead the Company to the next level of success, while retaining the integrity and commitment to our customers, dealers, and employees that has been the hallmark of Miller for more than 100 years.

Prior to joining Miller-St. Nazianz, John W. Miller served for seven years in Washington, DC as the chief tax and budget policy advisor and Deputy Chief of Staff to a member of the U.S. House of Representatives sitting on the Committee on Ways and Means. John received a B.A. from Marquette University, M.A. from Georgetown University, and J.D. from the University of Wisconsin. Prior to his new appointment, John served Miller as Vice President & General Counsel.

"I look forward to the challenge of growing our business while maintaining the tradition of quality, innovation, and integrity that farmers, dealers, and staff have long come to expect of Miller," John W. Miller said.

The company currently manufacturers Nitro and Condor crop sprayers and Ag-Bag crop baggers. Last year, the firm sold its Badger Farm Equipment and Miller Pro product lines.
