Tyson Foods Plans to Close or Sell Three U.S. Beef Facilities Amid Shortages
Tyson said it will shift processing capacity from three U.S. beef locations to other sites and anchor its beef business around plants in Dakota City, Nebraska; Holcomb, Kansas; and Amarillo, Texas. The company declined to say how many workers or cattle volumes will be affected. The move follows Tyson’s January shutdown of its Lexington, Nebraska plant and a reduction at Amarillo. A Texas official linked the restructuring to severe cattle shortages.
