Senator Collins Visits Johnny's Selected Seeds

Executive Director

Johnny's Selected Seeds, which has had an ESOP since 2006 and became 100% ESOP-owned this year, hosted Maine Senator Susan Collins (R). Senator Collins has supported legislation to facilitate ESOP companies getting loans from the Small Business Administration and to broaden the use of the 1042 rollover. "Some of the most innovative firms in the country are employee-owned," said Senator Collins.
