DESCRIPTION

This Louis Dreyfus facility features two adjacent Macon buildings. These hoop buildings store over 6 million combined bushels and feature high speed equipment. Two dump pits feed a single bucket elevator that can be routed to either building.

The full reclaim system and the conveyors move the beans to the crush plant for processing.  A significant amount of automation was incorporated in this design.

The extra storage allows LDC to stock up when prices are low and grind all year round.
