About Tecumseh Poultry, Inc

Tecumseh Poultry, Inc, doing business as MBA Poultry, operates a poultry slaughter and processing establishment at 333 South Third Street in Tecumseh, Johnson County, Nebraska. The plant holds federal establishment number P20251 and is listed with USDA FSIS for Poultry Processing and Poultry Slaughter, with poultry reported as the species slaughtered under inspection. FSIS classifies the plant in its Small size category, with a grant of inspection date on file of December 1, 2021, and a slaughter volume category of 5.0. No custom-exempt activity is reported to FSIS, which indicates the establishment's work is done under federal inspection rather than as custom slaughter for individual owners.

Secondary search results associated with the Tecumseh location describe the operation in connection with the Smart Chicken brand, an air chill system in which no water is used in the chill chamber, and a founding year of 1998. Those same results list products including fresh chicken, ground chicken, sausages, nuggets or tenders, and bone broth. These points come from third party listings and brand pages rather than a plant page for establishment P20251, so they should be confirmed directly with the company.

The website recorded on file for this establishment, jscnovachicken.com, resolves to an unrelated international B2B wholesale marketplace listing frozen chicken, chicken feet, beef, and seafood from many suppliers worldwide. It contains no information about the Tecumseh plant, its operations, or its customers. Beyond the federal record and the secondary listings noted above, details such as hours, ownership, booking practices, and retail sales are not yet on file.

Questions about Tecumseh Poultry, Inc

Does this plant take animals from individual farmers for custom processing?
Not stated. FSIS reports no custom-exempt activity for establishment P20251, and no booking, minimum, or cut and wrap information is on file. Contact the plant at (402) 786-1000 to ask.
Can households buy meat directly at the plant?
Not stated. There is no retail counter, bundle, or shipping information in the sources on file. Secondary listings mention products such as fresh chicken, ground chicken, sausages, nuggets or tenders, and bone broth, but no direct-to-consumer sales are described.
What species does the plant handle?
Poultry. FSIS lists poultry as the species slaughtered under inspection, and the plant's FSIS activities are poultry slaughter and poultry processing.
Is the website listed for this plant its own site?
No. The website on file, jscnovachicken.com, is an international B2B wholesale marketplace unrelated to the Tecumseh plant. Secondary search results connect the location to the Smart Chicken brand, but that link is not confirmed by the federal record.
