On this day in 2021, we announced our acquisition of six bioethanol plants and two terminals – the largest in biofuels history. This increased our annual production capacity by 40% virtually overnight, thus launching the next chapter in the POET story. Even as we have evolved, our mission and vision have not changed, and we are proud of our ever-growing, world-class team and their dedication to create a better world by harnessing the power of agriculture and bioproducts. One team. One POET. Three billion gallons strong. #POETproud

The waiver lifts nonsensical seasonal restrictions on the cleaner, cost-saving biofuel blend to keep E15 flowing when Americans need it most. Learn more: https://lnkd.in/gq5SMqbQ

Last month, the team members at POET Biofuels in Wichita each got to put a personal touch on the new addition to their office building! Everyone joined in on the construction fun and added their signatures to one of the final beams that will go into place. It will be visible in one of the storage areas once construction is completed at the end of 2024, increasing office space by 30%. Now that's what we call, quite literally, building a strong team foundation! #POETproud
