Virginia-Carolina Co Buys Gate City Oil Mills and More
The Virginia-Carolina Chemical Company has purchased the Gate City oil mills near Fort McPherson and bought out all other interests of John Oliver of Atlanta. Oliver’s mills extend across Georgia and into neighboring states, including a Charlotte, North Carolina plant. The deal, worth several hundred thousand dollars, ties VCC to the Southern Cotton Oil Company and broadens its control of southern cotton seed oil plants to secure ammonia for fertilizers. Officials say details are undisclosed, but the move appears aimed at self protection and controlling cotton seed oil supplies.
