This facility is anticipated to be completed in late 2025 and create 85 full-time jobs as a result.
High Plains Processing is a majority-owned subsidiary of South Dakota Soybean Processors and has plans to invest more than $500m in Davidson County and across the state in the next two years.
The construction milestone follows after South Dakota Soybean Processors entered into a guarantee agreement regarding an investment in the plant earlier this month.
