Two decades later, in 1976, he officially founded Bish Enterprises in Giltner, Nebraska, to deliver innovative harvesting solutions to farmers. Today, under the leadership of third-generation owner Andrew Bish, our family works alongside a talented team of engineers, fabricators and field specialists to carry forward our founder’s spirit of ingenuity and farmer-first service.
