Milano Livestock Exchange

As the first US case of New World Screwworm has been confirmed tonight, the most important FACT that we in the industry must communicate to consumers is that it does not pose any food safety risk.

We thank the work of USDA and our industry groups for uniting around a push to eradicate this parasite from North America. We know that we will defeat this pest once again.

Today, we proudly celebrate 40 years of business as Milano Livestock Exchange! What began as a weekly livestock auction on May 6, 1986, and ran successfully for thirty years, selling more than 1.7 million head of cattle, became a different business model in 2016 as we welcomed the next generation, operating solely as a livestock dealership, buying cattle across Texas and the United States.

With hard work and strong relationships at our foundation, we operate as a family business, and truly appreciate our valued customers and cherished friends. We focus on involvement in state and national organizations to stay relevant within the business, keeping current with industry changes and policies.

As our next generation of the Lastovica and Marburger Families continues our business, we look forward to maintaining our legacy and commitment to our customers, and strive for excellence in the livestock industry.

Some memories just never lose their color-and that’s exactly how we feel about our littlest boss making sure we’ve always got trucks loaded the way they need to be. 🫶

While attending the Fort Worth Stock Show and Rodeo, our family had the pleasure of visiting with U.S. Secretary of Agriculture Brooke Rollins and hearing her firsthand perspective on the challenges currently facing the cattle industry and agriculture as a whole, which impacts our businesses.

With Steven having served on several agricultural government boards and Bracken currently serving on an internal group for the Livestock Marketing Association focused on the impact of the New World Screwworm—it was especially meaningful for them to visit directly with Secretary Rollins on relevant issues our industry is navigating.

We admire the leadership she brings to agriculture, and are proud to have a fellow Aggie in such an important role! 🇺🇸
