What is this bond?

The Minnesota Wholesale Produce Dealer Bond is a commercial surety bond that guarantees wholesale produce dealers operate ethically and fulfill their financial contracts. It serves as a financial guarantee that dealers will pay farmers and sellers for the agricultural products they purchase.

Who needs it?

Individuals or businesses operating as wholesale produce buyers, brokers, or commission merchants in Minnesota generally need this bond. If you purchase wholesale produce for resale, you will likely need this bond to secure your state license.

Why is it required?

The obligee, typically the Minnesota Department of Agriculture, requires this bond to protect local farmers, growers, and sellers from non-payment and fraud. If a dealer fails to pay for agricultural goods as agreed, the bond provides a path for suppliers to seek financial compensation.

Common mistakes to avoid

  • ⚠Failing to verify the exact required bond amount with the Minnesota Department of Agriculture before submitting an application.
  • ⚠Assuming the bond acts as traditional insurance that covers the dealership's own business losses.
  • ⚠Allowing the bond to expire before securing a renewal, which can result in the suspension of your dealer license.
  • ⚠Providing inaccurate business volume estimates, which can disrupt the bond limits determined by the state.
