Sioux-Preme
Packing Co. has two locations right the heart of hog
country. 
Both plants are located in the largest
hog producing state in the United States. Our
harvest facility is located in Sioux Center, IA.
With significant capital improvements over the past five years, we
now have a daily harvest capacity of nearly 4,000 head
per day. Our fabrication facility is located in
Sioux City, IA.
Our Sioux City
facility is located
just a
block from I-29 in Sioux City, IA. I-90 is about
80 miles North and I-80 is about 80 miles South of our
plant. Our close proximity to these major
interstates mean that we can assist with all your
transportation needs. In the Spring of 2007, we
completed construction of a new addition onto our fabrication
facility to add more fabrication capacity.
Sioux-Preme
Packing Co. is unique in the meat packing industry-we're one
of the few small, pork processors who has survived and
prospered in the highly competitive, rapidly changing
environment the industry has experienced in the last three
decades. Since 1969 we've been producing quality pork
products to meet the needs of growing consumer demands.
Our specialties include providing custom harvest and
processing for customers who require special needs such as
segregation related to antibiotic free, natural, organic, or
breed specific products.
We
currently ship products throughout North America in the
United States, Canada, and Mexico. We also supply
our products to countries overseas such as Japan and
Korea.
Sioux-Preme
holds memberships in the finest meat associations in
North America. These include North American Meat Processors (NAMP),
US Meat Export Federation (USMEF), and National Meat
Association (NMA). These memberships enable us to
stay on the cutting edge of changes in our industry such
as government regulations, international policy and
industry trends.
Over the
past few years, we have added a number of features to
our facilities to provide our customers with the best
quality products available. These improvements
have led us to increase our daily harvest capacity to
nearly 4,000 head per day.
CO2
Stunning
Our
recently installed CO2
stunning machine brings a number of advantages to
our operation versus electric stunning:
New Livestock
Handling Facility
Our new
3,000 head livestock handling facility has allowed us to
increase our volume to keep pace with our customers'
demands. Our new facility was designed with
meat quality and safety in mind. For example,
the pens are built with gates that form 45 degree
angles when open so that the hogs don't encounter 90
degree angles when separated into pens.
The floor was also created with an anti slip
surface. Features such as these reduce stress
on the hogs, increase meat quality, and help prevent
animal and human injuries.
New Carcass Storage
Cooler
Our new
carcass storage cooler has also allowed us to
increase our volume. More cooler space means
that we can harvest more hogs per day and still get
them chilled in time for quick delivery to our
customers or our fabrication plant. The new
cooler has also been equipped with state of the art
software which controls temperature and water spray.
This helps reduce carcass shrink by keeping the meat
moist and also inproves the meat quality.
New Fabrication
Addition
In the
Spring of 2007 we completed the construction of an addition
to our fabrication facility in Sioux City.
This expansion increased our fabrication
capacity significantly. The increased capacity
allows us to continue to grow with our customers'
specific demands. The additional room means
that we can continue doing specialty cuts for our
customers in a timely and price effective manner.
