Distillery to Expand

Rasmussen Farms Distillery in El Campo is set to receive up to $50,000 in economic development funds to expand its site. The distillery, known for transforming rice into vodka, plans to add a restaurant to its location on U.S. 59 Frontage Road. This project is expected to create 10-12 full-time jobs and boost local economic growth. The City Development Corporation of El Campo approved the grant, and the city council gave its final approval. This expansion aims to attract more visitors and enhance the local economy.
