Perdue Farms to Close Tennessee Plant, Impacting Over 430 Workers

In a significant business move, Perdue Farms has announced plans to shut down a processing plant in Monterey, Tennessee, resulting in the job loss for more than 430 employees. According to a recent report, the decision is influenced by changes in market demand and production strategies affecting the Monterey facility in recent years.

Perdue Farms, renowned for its chicken products, is providing affected workers with severance packages and job placement assistance. CEO Kevin McAdams acknowledged the difficulty of the decision but emphasized its necessity to secure the company's future.

This closure emerges against the backdrop of shifting dynamics in the chicken meat market in the United States. According to data from the IndexBox platform, the United States saw an export value of chicken meat reaching $4 billion in 2024, a slight decrease from $4.5 billion in 2023. Key export destinations included Mexico with $844.2 million, followed by Canada and China with $387.3 million and $294.5 million, respectively.

On the import front, the U.S. imported chicken meat worth $303.1 million in 2024, up from $241.9 million in 2023. The primary import partners were Chile at $189.9 million and Canada at $112.9 million in the most recent year.

Founded in 1920 and headquartered in Salisbury, Maryland, Perdue Farms employs over 20,000 people and generates annual sales exceeding $10 billion, focusing on poultry, livestock, and agriculture sectors.
