Speaking of scams--I think there is one going on in the other biodiesel thread

I did google the grants scam you mentioned about. Yes it is scary. I do not offer grants - I like to keep my money. I have a consulting division that caters to Universities, Hospitals & State Governments on regulatory issues and reporting relating to Federal grants.

Actually I'd like to deal with international firms as i constantly see cheap vegetable oil (my raw material) from Africa and Asia for sale online. My problem is lack of resources to check them out to see if they are legit!!! (and also I don't know how to figure shipping costs to see if it really would be cost effective). And no I didn't mean it personally--I'm sure your company is honest and straight forward.

I will not take your remark personally but one of our clients is a state government - sorry - no scam here. Just trying to help. The country I was talking about is India and the company that may be interested is among the top 10 there.

BTW don't deal with a company called "Infinity Global Solutions". They are not real--just a scam!!!!!!!!! Contact the postmaster inspector in Chicago if they solicite you!!!!

I'm sorry but I don't deal with grants (as odd as that sounds) or with overseas interests due to already getting burned by a "canadian" company that turned out to be a scam. Thanks though!!!

Although this is not an area that I operate in, I may be able to put you in touch with an interested party from an emerging (non-hostile) country. feel free to contact me with a writeup at vc@grantsforce.com

I can't speak for Biolio but KOSS Group LLC (kentucky oil self sufficiency group llc) has a business plan and is open to anyone who would like to take a look. I assume the other gentleman is referring to the fact that most places that are willing to finance want 10 to15% down and some of us don't have it. As far as government assistance, I could be wrong but most of what I've seen is a willingness to back a biofuels company if they have a new, experimental way of making it. I've encountered this problem many times--new technology research gets all the money.

Greetings, bioolio. I think this is your fourth post on this same topic . . . each time, members have quickly responded that funding IS available and asked if you have a business plan -- and the previous three threads died there without an answer from you. There ARE members who can help (I think the USDA has programs to guarantee loans for biodiesel plants) and several have seemed very willing to try -- but for anyone to offer useful guidance, they need to know the answer: Do you have a business plan?

You can get the financing HERE to build a Biodiesel plant. However you need to tell us more.
We know this is an incredible business and the demand is astronomical. Tell us more.
Tell us about yourself, your education and how you get all these contracts.
Do you have a Business and or Marketing Plan?? How soon can this start??
