providing personal service. Look to Perdue for knowledgeable, experienced
foodservice industry professionals who seek long-term partnerships and shared
successes.
80 Years of Poultry Experience
In 1920, Arthur W. Perdue started the business with a backyard table-egg poultry
farm in Salisbury, Maryland. Under the leadership of Arthur's son Frank Perdue,
the company grew into a multi-faceted agribusiness with sales of over $2 billion
per year. Frank's son, Jim Perdue, now heads the company in the third generation
of family leadership. Beginning its ninth decade of growth, Perdue is still
family-owned and operated, still privately held and offers a heritage of quality
and leadership unmatched by any other poultry company today.
A Commitment to Foodservice and Retail Deli
With guaranteed product performance and consistency, Perdue has the tools and
resources in place to meet your foodservice needs today and into the future with
turkey and chicken products. We are the only poultry processor with a
proprietary breed of chicken, which means the Perdue® breed is the meatiest
chicken you can buy. Ph.D. staffed and trained, Perdue's full-service modular
test kitchen and "real life" pilot plant will work with operators to
develop virtually any poultry product needed–ready-to-cook, fully cooked,
sliced, diced, breaded, grilled, marinated, and more. With a full line of
premium foodservice poultry products to choose from, you'll quickly discover
what a valuable resource Perdue is.
Service and Responsibility
Perdue offers a technologically advanced order processing system that will
streamline shipping, invoicing and reporting, while providing a high level of
customer service available in the industry today. Our professional,
product-focused sales force will bring expert product knowledge and service to
our customers. Need to know when your Perdue shipment will be arriving? Many of
Perdue's trucks are equipped with the On-Board Exception Monitoring System. The
system utilizes the latest computer/satellite tracking capabilities to stay in
step with customer delivery schedules.
Perdue® Quality
Perdue® quality encompasses every aspect, from the egg to the customer's plate.
To maintain the high levels of quality for which our products are known, our
hatcheries, feed mills, processing facilities, laboratories, and distribution
centers rely on leading-edge technology. To further ensure the high quality of
Perdue® poultry products and stabilize our costs, Perdue operates a separate
Grain and Oilseed division. This facet of our company lets us control the diet,
process the grains, and carefully blend the feeds that produce wholesome and
healthy birds for our customers.
Brand Awareness
The Perdue® brand – and the great products and value for which it stands –
has captured a prominent place in the retail marketplace and in the minds of
your customers. Our branded chicken and turkey products are sold in
supermarkets, grocery stores, delis and quality butcher shops in major consumer
markets, where they are often ranked as "number one" in consumer
preference. To capitalize on this brand awareness within the foodservice arena,
we have embarked on an aggressive trade advertising campaign. Your advantage:
real brand equity in the Perdue® name that can directly translate into customer
sales within the foodservice market.
A Commitment to Food Safety
Providing the highest level of quality poultry to our customers requires
establishing confidence in the safety of our poultry. Food Safety is a top
concern for today's foodservice operators and as a company dedicated to finding
solutions to these ever-growing challenges, we know that providing safe,
labor-saving, convenient products is the key. Perdue's multi step food safety
process begins on the farm. Our internally developed Microbial Reduction plan
researches virtually every aspect of our process as products pass through to our
plant facilities. This process was designed using the same principles as those
used to develop the HACCP (Hazard Analysis Critical Control Points) programs now
required by the USDA.
The Perdue® Mission
Meeting and exceeding your expectations is a tradition at Perdue Farms, one of
the nation's largest poultry processors. Our mission is to provide solutions to
our customers and users of our products that are profitable for them, and for
us. For over 80 years, we have been driven by one goal, that our company be
known for quality that is uncompromising and without end.
Heritage, Experience, Leadership. That's the Perdue® difference.
