About Us

A proud history

Founded in 1872, ANM Group Ltd has grown to become one of Scotland’s largest and most progressive producer-owned co-operatives, playing a pivotal role in the agricultural industry. With a legacy spanning over 150 years, we are not just a business – we are a cornerstone of the farming community, dedicated to supporting our members and the future of the agricultural sector. Our history is steeped in tradition, yet we continue to innovate, ensuring our members achieve the best possible value for their goods.

Transparent auctions: delivering fair value

For over a century, ANM Group has been a leader in delivering fair and transparent value through our auction rings. Our auctioneers have a reputation for integrity, ensuring that both buyers and sellers benefit from a competitive marketplace that accurately reflects the true value of goods. We offer multiple routes to market, allowing our members to achieve the best possible price for their produce, livestock, and equipment. Our core principle remains, providing a fair and open platform where our members’ interests come first.

A hub of community and commerce

Our headquarters at Thainstone Centre, Inverurie is well-known as the agri-hub of the North East of Scotland. Drawing thousands of visitors each year, Thainstone Centre is a bustling marketplace and social centre that strengthens ties within the farming community. With additional centres located across Scotland in Elgin, Caithness, and the Isles, ANM Group is deeply embedded in the local economy, returning benefits to members and reinvesting in the communities we serve.

The co-operative advantage: member-driven success

At ANM Group, our members are at the heart of everything we do. As a co-operative, we are owned and operated by our 5,000 members, all of whom share in the success of the business. This member-centric approach means that our decisions and strategies are designed to directly benefit our members, maximising returns and creating a sustainable future for all.
