Description:
We are an operational trucking company with carrier authority. We are looking to expand our fleet, and at the same time move into the bio-diesel market. We intend to work with area farmers to grow canola and camelina two of the highest yielding oil seed crops today. Green Fuel Company will press the seed crop for oil and then convert it to bio-diesel. As you can imagine fuel cost in the transportation industry are about 40-50% of operational cost and will only go higher as demand and supply strain the market. By producing are own fuel we can cut cost by over 40%. Also the new energy bill allows for tax breaks and incentives for new bio-fuels that will further grow our company.
