Our Team
Saskatchewan Location
Charlie and Marj Smith
Charlie and Marj founded Combine World in 1986. Over 35 years they saw their business grow and adapt based on the needs of their customers. Farming has always been an important part of their lives, and their understanding of the ag business led Combine World to offer its customers the best service possible. Charlie and Marj chose their staff based on their exceptional qualities and their dedication to the industry, a tradition carried on by Combine World's current manager, Sheri Siebert. Charlie and Marj retired in 2021, but remain an important part of the Combine World community.
Sheri Siebert
Sheri joined Combine World in May 2012, when she did many things, including equipment operation, welding and more. She then became a top-notch parts person, and over the years, took on a number leadership roles within the organization. When Charlie and Marj retired in 2021, she became manager. Her constant positive attitude and knack for solving problems make her a excellent member of the team, and a great leader to work alongside.
Janna Hipp
Janna joined us at Combine World at the end of 2012, and did a number of things before landing as our shipper/receiver extraordinaire for the past several years. You might have talked to her on the phone about your shipment or picked up your order from her in the warehouse. She keeps track of an incredible number of moving parts (and moving parts!). We are happy to have her.
