Jamaica Ethanol Processing shuts down, citing weak demand

August 8, 2011 |

In Jamaica, Jamaica Ethanol Processing shut down its plant this week, cutting 31 jobs due to three years of rising input costs that pushed the company out of the market. The company had operated for 26 years.

The facility produced 50 million gallons of ethanol annually, primarily dehydrating Brazilian hydrous ethanol for the US market.
