COMMUNITY IMPACT

  • 28 permanent jobs created or retained
  • crane 35 construction jobs created
Express Biodiesel (EGB) built a new plant to produce up to 15 million gallons per year of biodiesel from locally sourced soybean oil and waste poultry processing oils. EGB is family owned and operated in Leflore County, a Persistent Poverty County in the MS Delta, a region that has suffered from extreme poverty and high unemployment for generations. When used as vehicle fuel, biodiesel produces significantly lower emissions than petroleum diesel.
