Pilgrim's Pride Corporation

Pilgrim's Pride Corporation operates establishment P1201 at 484 Zimmerman Road in Sanford, Lee County, North Carolina. The federal record lists the plant for poultry slaughter and poultry processing under USDA FSIS inspection, with a grant of inspection date on file of May 6, 2022. FSIS classifies the establishment as large and places it in slaughter volume category 5.0, the highest of the reported volume bands. The establishment also does business under the names JUST BARE and PILGRIMS. Poultry is the only species reported slaughtered under inspection, and no custom-exempt activity is reported.

Pilgrim's is a corporate producer rather than a local custom shop. Its company website describes Pilgrim's as one of the world's largest poultry, pork, and prepared foods producers, with more than 61,000 team members, 39 fresh processing facilities and 30 prepared foods facilities in the United States, the United Kingdom, Puerto Rico, Mexico, and Europe, and products sold in more than 100 countries. The company says it partners with more than 6,800 family farms for poultry, hog, and lamb supplies, and that it has supplied products for more than seven decades. Corporate headquarters is listed at 1770 Promontory Circle, Greeley, Colorado.

The company website is global in scope and does not publish facility-level information for the Sanford plant. Details specific to this establishment beyond the federal record, including hours, retail sales, and any arrangements for individual farmers, are not yet on file.
