Our Story
Mopac: Leading the Way in Used Cooking Oil Collection and Recycling Since 1877
Mopac’s story began in Souderton, PA, in 1877 with Abraham F. Moyer at the helm. Starting as a family-operated meatpacking business, Mopac has evolved alongside our community, growing from a small rural company to an industry leader in used cooking oil collection and recycling. This transformation highlights our dedication to sustainable practices and environmental responsibility.
As Souderton flourished, so did our commitment to innovation and eco-conscious solutions. Early on, Mopac embraced environmentally friendly practices, setting up one of the region’s first rendering facilities to reduce waste and repurpose by-products. Today, our used cooking oil collection and recycling services reflect our unwavering focus on helping businesses reduce their environmental footprint.
With each year, Mopac has continued to earn recognition for our dependable, sustainable operations. Our reputation extends beyond the Eastern U.S., establishing us as a trusted partner in used cooking oil recycling. We remain dedicated to ethical, responsible practices that benefit both our customers and the environment, carrying forward a legacy that started over a century ago.

MOPAC Today – A Commitment to Environmental Stewardship and Community
Now operating under the JBS umbrella, Mopac remains committed to our core values of environmental care and community engagement. We are a collective of passionate professionals focused on making a positive impact. Our mission revolves around converting challenging by-products like grease, cooking oils, and inedible animal by-products into valuable resources. These materials are repurposed into essential commodities such as bio-diesel, cosmetics, and animal feed, contributing to a sustainable circular economy.
At MOPAC, we envision a future where our business activities positively contribute to the health of our planet. Our work extends beyond rendering services, aligning with our goal of fostering a sustainable future through deliberate and thoughtful actions. Our heritage reflects responsible growth, and each step forward is taken with a vision for a better future that benefits us all.
A Century of Sustainability Leadership
For over a century, MOPAC has pioneered in the transformation of waste into valuable resources, particularly repurposing 58 million pounds of used vegetable oils annually for various industries. This remarkable endeavor exemplifies our commitment to creating a sustainable world.
Our Holistic Approach to Environmental Stewardship
Our core philosophy of Total Resource Utilization drives us to recycle every material, striving for complete self-sustainability. Our dedicated team is committed to implementing innovative practices that contribute to a cleaner planet. Beyond our operational efforts, we also advocate for responsible recycling of FOG (Fats, Oil, and Grease) materials to play a crucial role in reducing environmental harm.
Achievements and Future Commitments
MOPAC’s commitment to the environment is demonstrated through its significant contributions to sustainability. Annually, we recycle over 50 million gallons of water and recover enough thermal energy to heat 300 homes each winter. Our initiatives align with the Clean Air Act Permit, ensuring thorough air treatment and water recycling. As part of JBS USA, we embrace the three pillars of sustainability: social responsibility, economic viability, and environmental stewardship, positively impacting our community. Our dedication to continuous innovation and sustainable practices guides us towards a greener future, and we welcome partnerships on this journey.
