嘉吉將在密蘇裏州建造大豆加工廠

根據5月17日的聲明，佩米斯科特縣新的6200萬蒲式耳/年工廠的工作將於明年年初開始。

“Cargill’s new facility, with its location on the Mississippi river, will operate year-round and provide farmers [with an] opportunity to take advantage of increased domestic demand versus relying solely on seasonal exports,” Cargill Agricultural Supply Chain North America’s regional commercial lead Tim Coppage said. “Access to both river and rail will provide more flexibility and market access for farmers.”

該公司表示，新的位置將有助於嘉吉在其北美油料網絡中增加產能。

卡吉爾說，自1936年以來，它在密蘇裏州就在該州的11個地點運營。

去年，嘉吉在北美宣布了一係列項目，包括對其在俄亥俄州西德尼的大豆粉碎設施的重大改進，並計劃在薩斯喀徹溫省裏賈納（Regina）建立新的低芥酸菜籽處理設施。
