South Bend Ethanol Revenue and Competitors

South Bend Ethanol is a corn-based ethanol manufacturing plant with a production capacity of 100 million gallons per year of denatured ethanol used for fuel blending. The plant also produces high quality dried distillers grains with solubles (DDGS) to be used as animal feed, along with corn oil which is also used to blend into the animal feed market. Located on the south western side of South Bend, it is strategically positioned near Chicago which serves as the main pricing index for both the ethanol and corn markets. With rail and truck infrastructure access, the plant can supply local customers as well as extended range consumers on the eastern coast. The plant is owned by Mercuria, one of the world's leading biofuel traders, and operated by Consolidated Asset Management Services (CAMS).
