MEAT PROCESSING PLANT FOR SALE
Swift Current, Saskatchewan

    We are an extremely busy and well-respected, government inspected meat processing plant located in Swift Current, Saskatchewan.  We have been building up our business for close to 40 years and have been in our present facility for 15 years.  We process beef, pork, lamb, elk, and bison. We service a substantial trading area and enjoy a solid reputation throughout the province.

     Our business includes custom processing, wholesaling, and retailing.  We have recently upgraded and expanded our entire retail service area and  we are now  in a very good position to service the  increasing demand for our retail product and focus on some higher - margin, “value - added” items.  From custom slaughtering and processing to retail cutting, curing, and smoking, we are a completely integrated facility. 

     With 7-figure annual sales, equipment valued at more than $300K, and a very positive monthly cash-flow, our business will prove to be a very attractive investment for any party looking to take over a turnkey operation and run their own enterprise.  Present management is willing to stay on to  train new owners as required. We have been in the industry for 40 years and are now looking to retire.  Call or email Michael to discuss your options.
