Once Glucovil had consolidated its firm base by the production of sugar, paper and alcohol, the company moved into the corn wet milling industry in Argentina in 1982. During that year Glucovil was founded as the Ledesma company destined to produce Fructose and Glucose syrups during this first stage of development.

After 15 years new product lines were introduced and control systems modernized towards transforming Glucovil into one of the most modern corn wet milling plants in Argentina.

Its industrial plant currently has a wet milling capacity of 180,000 tons a year.

Glucovil's corn wet milling plant located at Villa Mercedes in the province of San Luis produces the following specialized products:

• High Maltose Syrup: this product is mainly used in the brewing industry.
• Corn Germ: with its high oil content, this product is widely used in the oil industry for manufacturing corn oil.
