Cal-Maine Foods, a producer and distributor of fresh shell eggs, completed the acquisition of the Dexter shuttered broiler processing assets from Tyson Foods, a processor and marketer of chicken, beef, and pork. Financial terms were not disclosed. “We are pleased to join the Dexter community and are excited about the opportunities to expand our operations. We intend to partner with the existing strong network of local contract growers who can support our shell egg production capabilities. Dexter’s central geographic location and strong work force will enhance our supply and distribution capabilities for customers in Missouri and surrounding markets. Importantly, we will also benefit from closer proximity to sources for our primary feed ingredients. We look forward to the new production opportunities, including the potential for additional free-range capacity, in this new community and market for Cal-Maine Foods,” Sherman Miller, Cal-Maine Foods President and CEO.
