Royal Pack LLC

Royal Pack LLC operates at 21981 Glade Road N in Basin City, Franklin County, Washington, under USDA FSIS establishment number M6270. The federal record lists the plant for Meat Slaughter and Meat Processing, with cattle reported as the species slaughtered under inspection. FSIS classifies the plant as small and shows a grant of inspection date of November 22, 2022. Its reported slaughter volume category is 2.0, above the smallest tier of under 1,000 head per year.

The plant is also listed as reporting custom-exempt slaughter, meaning it processes animals owned by the customer with the resulting packages marked Not for Sale. Terms, scheduling, and fees for custom work are not stated in the sources on file.

The website on file belongs to Royal Family Farms, a family farming operation based in Royal City, Washington. Its About page states that Austin Allred acquired Royal Pack so that beef could be processed locally and reduce the operation's carbon footprint. The Royal Family Farms site describes the farm's origins in 1962 under Wells and Loriol Allred, later expansion into orchards, row crops, honey and dairy, and a regenerative closed loop system linking crops, milk, meat and manure. The site's homepage separately uses the phrase grounded and rooted since 1970. The beef collection states that the beef is born, raised and processed on the family farm in central Washington. A Facebook post cited in search results notes that Royal Family Farming is in Royal City while Royal Pack is in Basin City.

The federal record lists Royal Pack LLC for cattle slaughter and meat processing and indicates the plant reports custom-exempt slaughter, in which animals owned by the customer are processed and the packages are marked Not for Sale. Beyond that listing, the sources on file do not state booking procedures, lead times, drop-off days, minimums, hanging weight or cut and wrap fees, or whether the plant takes work from outside farms. The affiliated Royal Family Farms website describes the plant as serving the family's own beef. Farmers should contact the plant at (509) 234-0531 to confirm availability and terms as listed.

Royal Pack LLC reports custom-exempt slaughter 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.

Royal Pack itself is not described in the sources as operating a retail counter, and no hours, halves or quarters, bundles, or shipping terms are stated for the plant. The affiliated Royal Family Farms website sells beef online, including individual cuts such as cowboy ribeye, flank steak, top round roast, boneless chuck roast, London broil roast, ground beef chubs, diced brochette meat and split marrow bones, along with snack sticks, tallow, honey, cider and bundle boxes such as The Royal Reserve Box, The Heritage Box and The Ground Beef Box. That site states the beef is born, raised and processed on the family farm in central Washington, and offers wholesale pricing by inquiry and farm tours scheduled on Thursdays.

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.
