In 2019, Lely announced plans for its new North American campus, furthering its commitment to Pella, the state of Iowa and the dairy producers across North America. A groundbreaking ceremony took place last at the company’s new location.

The new campus spans nearly 60 acres at the intersection of IA-163 and 250th Ave. / Adams Ave. in Pella. Lely North America President Chad Huyser was joined by several special guests at the groundbreaking, including Iowa’s Lieutenant Governor Adam Gregg and Pella Mayor Don DeWaard. Gregg says the growth of the project is a reflection of bipartisan commitment to grow the state’s agricultural technology sector, and to invest in rural Iowa through Future Ready Iowa and the Empower Rural Iowa initiatives.
