Growmark and COFCO International have come to terms on two grain facilities. Growmark is selling its minority ownership in a grain-loading facility on the Mississippi River near St. Louis to COFCO. COFCO is selling its ownership stake in a Chicago grain warehouse facility near downtown Chicago to Growmark. State-owned COFCO and Growmark have been partners on the Mississippi River site since 2017. This transaction will likely need approval from the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States, which reviews foreign deals.
