Tyson Foods, Inc.

The Grannis, Arkansas facility is listed in the USDA FSIS establishment directory under Tyson Foods, Inc., at 8564 Highway 71 South in Polk County. FSIS records the establishment number as P27+V27 and list its activities as poultry slaughter, poultry processing, and export certification. The agency classifies the plant in its small size category and records a slaughter volume category of 5.0. The grant of inspection date on file is April 16, 2015. Species detail is not reported to FSIS, and no custom-exempt activity is reported.

The FSIS record associates the establishment with several alternate or doing-business-as names used by the company, including Brennan Packing Co., Inc., Delightful Farms, Prospect Farms, Spare Time, TSD Sales and Distribution, Tyson Sales and Distribution, Inc., and Victor F. Weaver Co. The website on file is the Tyson Foods corporate site, which describes the company as a multi-national protein-focused food company producing approximately 20 percent of the beef, pork, and chicken in the United States, with roughly 133,000 team members as of February 2026 and fiscal year 2025 sales of $54 billion.

The corporate website does not describe the Grannis plant's day to day operations, and no plant-level pricing, scheduling, cut and wrap, or retail information is present in the sources. Details beyond the federal record and the corporate site are not yet on file. A listed phone number for the location is (870) 385-2331. One secondary directory listing states the Grannis business was founded in 1988, which is earlier than the 2015 grant of inspection date recorded by FSIS; a separate directory entry lists a Tyson Foods company store at 8551 U.S. Highway 71 in Grannis, and that listing is not confirmed by the federal record or the company site.

The federal record lists poultry slaughter and poultry processing under federal inspection, with no custom-exempt activity reported, meaning the establishment is not recorded with FSIS as doing custom processing for individual owners. FSIS places the plant in its small size class with a slaughter volume category of 5.0, and species detail is not reported. Nothing in the sources describes booking procedures, drop-off scheduling, minimums, kill fees, or cut and wrap options for independent growers. Farmers should contact the listed phone number, (870) 385-2331, to learn what arrangements, if any, the plant makes.

Tyson Foods, Inc. operates under a federal grant of inspection, so product from this plant can be sold anywhere in the United States, which matters if you sell online or across a state line. FSIS does not list a custom-exempt activity for this plant.

No retail counter, on-site store hours, bundle, half or quarter, delivery, or shipping program at the Grannis plant is described in the sources. The corporate Tyson Foods site states that company products reach consumers through club stores, grocery stores, and discount stores under the Tyson, Jimmy Dean, Hillshire Farm, Ball Park, Wright, Aidells, and State Fair brands. A secondary business directory lists a Tyson Foods company store at 8551 U.S. Highway 71 in Grannis, but that listing is not confirmed by the company or the federal record.
