My staff and I toured Incobrasa in Gilman on Wednesday. I have hauled thousands of bushels there for the farm over the last 15-20 years but had not had the full tour until this week.
Incobrasa is a soybean processing and biodiesel manufacturing company with roots in the industry going back over 50 years. About 95% of the biodiesel produced at Incobrasa stays right here in Illinois.
They are currently working on an expansion that represents more than a $250 million capital investment and will create 40 new full-time jobs while retaining 200 jobs – generating economic benefit for the region and state. They will more than double their production capacity by 2030.
