PF Meats Company, Inc.

PF Meats Company, Inc. operates at 2945 Lebanon Road in Anderson, South Carolina, under USDA establishment number M47874. The Food Safety and Inspection Service lists the plant for both meat slaughter and meat processing, with a grant of inspection on file dated September 2, 2022. FSIS classifies the operation as very small.

Species slaughtered under inspection, as reported to FSIS, are cattle, hogs, and sheep and lamb. The plant falls in FSIS slaughter volume category 1, meaning fewer than 1,000 head per year. The establishment also reports custom-exempt processing, the arrangement used when an owner brings an animal in for their own use rather than for sale.

No website is on file for this establishment number. Search results reference a related retail operation, PF Meat Co. Butchery & Market, which mentions whole and half beef shares and a location in Pendleton, South Carolina, and FSIS separately lists a PF Meats Company under establishment number M19834+P19834 with a different telephone number. Because those references cannot be tied conclusively to M47874, details beyond the federal record are not yet on file. Buyers and producers should contact the plant at (864) 506-4046 to confirm current services, scheduling, and pricing.

The federal record lists this establishment for slaughter of cattle, hogs, and sheep and lamb under inspection, along with meat processing and custom-exempt work, which allows a producer to have an animal slaughtered and cut for personal use. Slaughter volume is reported in the lowest FSIS category, under 1,000 head per year, so scheduling capacity is likely limited at a plant this size. Booking windows, minimums, kill fees, cut and wrap charges, and hanging or aging practices are not stated in any source on file. Producers should call (864) 506-4046 to confirm what the plant handles and whether it is taking appointments.

PF Meats Company, Inc. reports custom-exempt processing to FSIS, which means it can process an animal a customer already owns (a whole, half, or share bought before slaughter) and return it in packages marked Not for Sale. Most small farms have one or two plants they book with, and the plant's calendar decides the delivery date.

No retail counter, bundle, delivery, or shipping information is confirmed for establishment M47874. A search snippet for PF Meat Co. Butchery & Market mentions whole and half beef shares and its own herd, and a separate listing references a Pendleton, South Carolina location, but those pages are not confirmed to describe this establishment number. Households interested in buying should contact the phone number on the federal record to ask what is available for direct purchase.

If you are buying a half or quarter animal, the plant is where the animal is processed; the farm sells you the animal. Read how to buy a half cow for the sequence and the math.
