Our Story
Anibas Silo & Equipment, Inc. was founded in 1973 by Dave and Dorothy Anibas at the home farm on Sylvester Road in Arkansaw, Wisconsin. While running the business, Dave also ran the family farm at the same location. Dorothy was on-site raising their family and helping with farm chores. In 1988 their son Ken came back home after finishing college and started working at the business, learning the day-to-day operations. Ken helped Dave expand the lines of equipment from one to several to help diversify the business and reach more customers. With both of them working on advancing the business they soon outgrew the old location, and in 1998 Ken took over ownership. In 2010, a new shop was built in Durand’s Industrial Park.
Today, Anibas Silo has expanded to multiple buildings, a machinery lot, and 14 employees. Ken still manages most of the day-to-day, and his wife Missy works in the office and does the billing and accounts receivables.
