This past weekend, Ag-Tronic Control Systems celebrated its 25-year anniversary. “My wife Samia and I started the company on January 17, 1991,” says Joe Sleiman with Ag-Tronic Control Systems. “At the time, there were no real agribusiness automation companies in our region and I saw a need for it. We started out broke and today, we have 20 employees in a 20,000 sq. ft. facility with our four children all involved in the business.” Initially, the company was based in Leamington, Ontario and has since then moved to neighboring town Lakeshore.
