ARTCO ships many of ADM's products, including grain and oil seed, ethanol, and corn gluten meal.
ARTCO towboats can be easily spotted on the river, they all sport a white base coat with green and blue stripes running horizontally on the sides.
ARTCO has a major presence in the Mississippi River and its tributaries, seemingly never stopping their barging operations from Red Wing MN, all the way down to the mouth of the Gulf of Mexico.
Another perk of their large ownership is their ability to be competitive with staffing their boats, with a high rate of employee satisfaction and lower turnaround than their competitors.
ARTCO pleaded guilty to giving false information to authorities who discovered oil spill at its St. Louis facility.
