MEMPHIS, Tenn., Nov 03, 2009 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- Recycle Solutions, the Memphis, TN based industrial recycling company, is launching a new division named Bluff City Commodities to offer clients reliable, high quality products and services in response to the increased global demand for agricultural products. Feed products such as dried distillers grains (DDGS), milo, wheat, corn, soybeans, and pet food grade rice; and the transloading of agricultural products will be offered to clients in the U.S. and in China.

Bluff City Commodities is uniquely positioned to offer clients seamless, fast delivery of high quality agricultural feed. Clients in the U.S. midsouth region, including: TN; MS; MO; AR; KY; LA; and AL, will benefit from their strategic location and access to a robust logistics network including BNSF, Union Pacific, and soon the Norfolk Southern terminals. Clients in China will be able to secure high quality feed easily through Bluff City Commodities' Chinese-fluent staff and their ability to efficiently navigate the customs process without the delay or additional expense of a grains broker. China's increased demand for quality grains has resulted in a larger market for quality feed grains from the U.S. but few companies have the ability to efficiently market to Chinese firms or ensure prompt delivery. The Chinese demand for dried distillers grains in particular is growing rapidly. The grains, a co-product of dry mill ethanol production, are an excellent feed source for dairy, cattle, swine, and poultry producers.

The Bluff City Commodities facility is certified by the USDA for weights and measures and their products are certified for quality by the USDA and other third-party laboratories. The Bluff City Commodities infrastructure, including: rail and truck unloading pits; a 10,000 bushel storage tank; a 9-car track with service by Union Pacific; and a 7,000 bushel per hour elevator leg, enable them to move large payloads quickly and efficiently.

Bluff City's Operations Manager, Mark Huber, states that, "The demand for grains such as dried distillers grains will continue to grow and our ability to leverage existing partnerships and ensure quality and fast delivery will enable our clients to get a reliable solution for cost-effective, quality feed for the long-term."
