Biodiesel is a fatty methyl/ethyl ester used as a substitute for fossil-based fuels. It is a largely preferred fuel, as it is environment-friendly and derived from vegetable oils, animal fats, and greases. In addition to this, biodiesel reduces greenhouse gas emissions and ensures complete burning. There has been a growing demand of biodiesel from end-use industries, such as automotive, electricity & power generation, marine, railway, agriculture, and mining.

Expansion was a key strategy adopted by major players to achieve growth in the global biodiesel market between 2013 and 2016. Some of the major players in the biodiesel market include Archer Daniels Midland Company (U.S.), Wilmar International Limited (Malaysia), Bunge Limited (U.S.), Neste Corporation (Finland), Renewable Energy Group Inc. (U.S.), Louis Dreyfus Company (Netherlands), Cargill Inc. (U.S.), BIOX Corporation (Canada), Munzer Bioindustrie (Austria), and TerraVia Holdings Inc. (U.S.). Besides expansions, companies also adopted acquisitions, agreements & joint ventures, and new product developments as strategies to expand their product portfolio, strengthen their distribution network, and easily extend their reach to their customers.

Cargill Inc. used expansion as its major strategy to increase its market share in the biodiesel market. In August 2016, Cargill Inc. expanded its canola research facility in Aberdeen (Canada). The expansion included new pathology lab, new state-of-the-art Quality Assurance lab, ventilated seed prep room, and high efficiency LED lighting throughout the facility, with UV repelling windows. This expansion covered an area of 14,000 sq. ft. and will allow the company to conduct research and innovations in the specialty canola business. In 2015, Cargill Inc. invested USD 100 million to double the capacity of its soybean oil crush operation in Borg El Arab and constructed an additional 42,000 MT of storage capacity within Cargill’s existing premises at the port of Dekheila in Alexandria. This helped the company meet the increasing demand for soybean oil and vegetable oil in Egypt.
