Coal City Cob Co., Inc.

At the personal invitation of Mike Cloonen, president, I was honored to represent Midlothian by attending the Grand Opening of Coal City Cob Company, Inc., in Waxahachie.

History:

Adrian Cloonen founded Coal City Cob Company in 1970 in Coal City, Illinois.  Adrian began hauling corncobs to various processors throughout the Midwest where the processors would grind up the corncobs and use the grindings for carriers of pesticides.

In 1987, Michael Cloonen joined Adrian and moved south to open the Texas terminal in Avalon, which is located about 50 miles south of Dallas.  Since 1987 Michael has built the company on quality equipment and quality service and due to the company's inventory of specialized equipment Coal City Cob is considered one of the most diverse carriers in the Bulk Liquid industry.
