LAS VEGAS, NV — (Marketwired) — 11/05/13 — Methes Energies International Ltd. (NASDAQ: MEIL), a renewable energy company that offers an array of products and services to biodiesel fuel producers, today announced that 18 rail cars were shipped out of its Sombra, Ontario biodiesel facility in October, 2013 for a total of over 485,000 gallons. This is the highest monthly level of shipment this year achieved by the Company and surpasses the previous monthly high of 8 rail cars in April 2013.
The increase in production and sales are due mainly to the availability of a working capital facility that was set up several weeks ago. Methes Energies has begun discussion with the current lender to increase the facility to allow producing even more biodiesel. At the current run-rate, the Company is well on track to produce as much biodiesel in the fourth quarter, ending November 30th 2013 than the entire 2012 fiscal year.
Nicholas Ng, President of Methes Energies said, “We hope to continue the current growth rate for the foreseeable future as we continue to have record months in production. Our goal is to leverage on this momentum and produce even more biodiesel in November. We enjoy a great working relationship with our financial partner and as they continue to see our success, we are confident that they will assist us in maintaining our growth rate.”
