Eric Hakmiller Consulting

ABOUT

 With 35+ years in commodity processing, I’ve led operations in corn wet milling, oilseed/softseed crush, soy concentrates, animal feed, and biofuels. I’ve run P&Ls, built international sales channels, and supervised plants in the U.S. and Europe. My approach is simple: make assets more efficient and more competitive in a tough commodity world.
