Wayne Farms Company
Wayne Farms
Wayne-Sanderson Farms was formed from two leading poultry companies who joined forces after growing from humble roots as a small-town, farm supply business and feed manufacturer to the third-largest poultry producer in the United States. We are a best-in-class U.S. poultry company dedicated to delivering high quality, affordable products to customers around the world. By leveraging our strong operating culture and industry leading teams, the company is committed to the success and safety of our team members, farmers and communities. With a diverse portfolio of brands like Sanderson Farms, Naked Truth, Chef’s Craft and Platinum Harvest, Wayne-Sanderson Farms offers a variety of fresh and prepared foods that help nourish families across the globe.
Wayne-Sanderson Farms is a fully integrated poultry processing company with a diverse portfolio of products, a strong operating culture and an industry-leading workforce of more than 26,000 people. Our operations include 20 poultry processing plants and three prepared foods plants across Alabama, Arkansas, Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi, North Carolina and Texas. This footprint allows us to grow together, be better business partners, expand our production capabilities and broaden our product portfolio.
