“The opening of this office is another milestone for LS9’s overall progress in Brazil,” said Ed Dineen, President and Chief Executive Officer of LS9. “Not only is Brazil an attractive market for our biofuel and biochemical portfolio, it is also strategically important to us as a source of feedstock, and for strategic partnerships with Brazilian companies. Brazil’s leadership in setting high standards for fuels, engines, emissions and higher biofuels blend limits will further drive market needs for our fuel products.”
