About

Buffalo Biodiesel Inc. operates in the renewable energy sector, focusing on the collection and recycling of used cooking oil into biodiesel, promoting sustainability across food service businesses. Buffalo Biodiesel Inc. was founded in 2005 and is headquartered in Buffalo, US.


The company specializes in recycling used cooking oil into biodiesel, enhancing environmental sustainability in the food service industry. In its latest financing round in October 2025, the company raised USD 300 mn from Veritec Ventures, bringing its total amount raised to USD 300 mn. This round is the only known funding deal for the company to date. Buffalo Biodiesel specializes in the collection and recycling of used cooking oil, providing essential services to various businesses in the food service industry.


Their core offerings include the provision of large waste oil containers and the scheduled pickup of used fryer grease, ensuring proper disposal and recycling into biodiesel, a renewable energy source. Buffalo Biodiesel serves a diverse client base, including restaurants, pizzerias, and other food establishments across multiple states, such as New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and New York. The company has established a reputation for reliability and customer service, as evidenced by positive testimonials from clients who appreciate the timely and efficient service. Through their operations, Buffalo Biodiesel aims to address environmental concerns by reducing waste and promoting sustainable energy solutions.


Buffalo Biodiesel generates revenue primarily through service contracts with businesses that require regular collection of used cooking oil. Clients are typically charged based on the volume of oil collected, and businesses are incentivized by the payments received for their recycled oil, creating a mutually beneficial relationship. The transaction structure is predominantly B2B, wherein restaurants and food establishments schedule pickups and receive waste oil containers on a rental basis. Pricing plans may vary based on the frequency of pickups and the amount of oil managed, allowing clients to customize their service according to their needs.


By focusing on oil recycling as a key service, Buffalo Biodiesel supports businesses in their sustainability efforts while generating revenue through reliable service agreements. In October 2025, Verite Capital Partners invested USD 300 mn in Buffalo Biodiesel Inc. This investment will be used by the company to advance the development of its renewable natural gas plants and broaden its market reach. Specific plans for future growth include launching new product offerings in the renewable energy sector and expanding into additional geographic regions.


The company aims to establish a presence in new markets through strategic partnerships and service agreements by the end of 2026.
