Tyson Fresh Meats, Inc.

Tyson Fresh Meats, Inc. operates a beef plant at 3105 North IBP Road in Holcomb, Finney County, Kansas, under FSIS establishment numbers M278 and V278. The federal record lists the establishment under several names, including IBP, Inc. and Tyson Foods, Inc. FSIS records the plant's activities as meat slaughter, meat processing, and export certification, with cattle as the only species slaughtered under inspection. The grant of inspection date on file is October 15, 2020.

FSIS classifies the establishment as large and places it in slaughter volume category 4.0, the top of the reported range and far above the category for plants handling under 1,000 head per year. No custom-exempt activity is reported to FSIS, meaning the federal record does not show slaughter or processing of animals returned to their owner outside of inspection. A Kansas tourism listing describes the site as a former IBP beef packing plant employing about 3,000 people and slaughtering roughly 6,000 head per day, and a chamber of commerce listing repeats the company's general statements on food safety, environmental stewardship, and animal welfare.

This establishment has no website on file with the registry, and no retail counter, custom booking, cut and wrap terms, or direct sales information is documented in the available sources. Details beyond the federal record and these secondary listings are not yet on file. The phone number in the federal record is (620) 277-4201; a third-party directory lists (620) 277-2614.

The federal record lists cattle slaughter and meat processing at this establishment, and FSIS reports no custom-exempt activity, so there is no indication in the record that the plant returns individually identified animals to their owner. FSIS classifies the plant as large, in slaughter volume category 4.0, and a Kansas tourism listing describes daily slaughter of about 6,000 head. Booking procedures, scheduling lead times, minimums, live receiving requirements, and fees are not stated in any source on file. Producers would need to contact the plant directly at (620) 277-4201 to learn how cattle are procured or received, as listed.

Tyson Fresh Meats, 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.
