Cargill to invest $225 million soybean crushing facility in Ohio, USA

Cargill is expanding its integrated soybean crush and refined oils facility in Sidney, Ohio, to better serve area farmers and to meet growing demand for protein and refined oils.

The company will invest approximately $225 million at the Sidney site, increasing crush capacity and modernising operations. The investment creates greater market access for farmers' crops in the area and allows those farmers to deliver their soybeans more efficiently, as the upgraded plant will unload trucks at a much faster rate.

'Farmers are at the core of our business. This investment will help us provide them a better experience when they choose to sell their crops to us,' said Don Camden, commercial leader for the eastern region of Cargill's agricultural supply chain business in North America. 'This also demonstrates our commitment to invest in and grow with the Sidney community.'

'The increased capacity will strengthen and expand our US crush footprint, enable us to meet the growing demand for soy products from our customers and further integrate our refined oil capabilities,' said Warren Feather, Cargill managing director of global crush.
