GEAPS: Where the Grain Industry Comes Together

No matter what your role is in the grain industry—from operations to senior management— new to the field or more experienced—shifting trends and innovations can affect you. It is so important to have people you can call on, suppliers you trust and tools to help you learn about the industry as you work to feed and fuel the world.

How do you stay connected with all aspects of the industry? With GEAPS!

Grain Elevator and Processing Society (GEAPS – pronounced “jeeps”) is an international professional association of individuals who work in the grain handling and processing industry. Since 1930, GEAPS has fostered leadership, innovation and excellence in grain-related industry operations. Our members began collaborating nearly 100 years ago to create and sustain safer, more efficient operations. Relationships and the exchange of grain operations and processing ideas and information remain the foundation of who we are and what we do! 

We are here to connect and serve the grain industry.

GEAPS has more than 3,000 individual members from about 1,000 companies and organizations represented in 46 United States, six Canadian territories and 15 countries around the globe! 

We are your global community.

Whether it’s participating in training and education programs, browsing the resources on our website, or taking a facility tour as part of a chapter meeting, our members have access to a wide range of tools to build their skills. We are working to bring our members—and the greater industry—even more resources in the future.
