It was 1985 when installing a 100,000 liter capacity bioethanol distillery began to be considered in Villa Ocampo, task which was completed the following year. A Zanini technology plant of Brazilian origin built in stainless steel is acquired, installed and commissioned, capable of using both cane molasses and cereals (the latter adapted in recent reforms) as raw materials. Contrary to what was expected, from 1986 to date the plant has not operated for more than 90 days. This was due to reasons linked to the national economy.

The twenty-seven years of inactivity of a practically unused plant began to worry a group of entrepreneurial businessmen who, defying a number of adverse national, provincial and regional socioeconomic conditions, decided in 2009 to get to work on the project of acquiring and reactivate the distillery that operates today.

The dream, the challenge and the effort assumed, comes true and has a name: BIOENERGÍAS AGROPECUARIAS S.A.
