Grain Processing Corporation is pretty corny. The company makes corn-based products for the food and beverage, personal care, pharmaceutical, and industrial manufacturing sectors. Its offerings include corn-syrup solids, corn oil, maltodextrin and other starches used for sweetening, and ethyl alcohol. The company's products are used in the manufacture of food, pharmaceuticals, personal-care products, beverages, paper, corrugated boxes, textiles, and wallboard, as well as for animal food and pet-care products. Its products are sold worldwide. Founded in 1943, Grain Processing is a subsidiary of Kent Corporation (formerly Muscatine Foods), which also also owns several animal-feed manufacturing companies.
