Were an urban farming company that grows amazing food. We mix Tech + Agriculture. We love to motivate youth to take interest in science.
Headquartered in Smithfield, Va. since 1936, Smithfield Foods, Inc. is an American food company with agricultural roots and a global reach. With more than 60,000 jobs globally, we are dedicated to producing "Good food. Responsibly®" and serve as one of the world`s leading vertically integrated protein companies. We have pioneered sustainability standards for more than two decades, including our industry-leading commitments to become carbon negative in U.S. company-owned operations and reduce GHG emissions 30 percent across our entire U.S. value chain by 2030. We believe in the power of protein to end food insecurity and have donated hundreds of millions of food servings to our communities. Smithfield boasts a portfolio of high-quality iconic brands, such as Smithfield®, Eckrich® and Nathan`s Famous®, among many others.
We sell all of our products with the roots attached so you and your family are buying the freshest lettuce and leafy greens available! You actually pick the leaves from a living plant, right in your own kitchen. It`s our hydroponic growing methods that help make it possible. All of our products are grown in greenhouses in Carpinteria, California. Indoor crops are protected from outside elements, reducing the possibility of contamination. Our elevated growing channels keep our crops from ever touching the dirt, so they stay much cleaner than field-grown crops.
We manage brands spanning multiple categories and classes of trade from coast to coast to coast. We`ve launched some and we`ve re-staged others but none of them were #1 to begin with. We`re proud of that. It speaks to the strength of our team and our selective approach to bringing on new clients. We`re an experienced team of focused, senior brand managers supported by solid business processes and technology. We manage fewer businesses with more applied resources. We`ve operated under this philosophy since 1945 and we`re still thriving. Our knowledge of the unique Canadian market covers everything from sales and marketing to logistics, distribution and administration. With this we promise full service.
